Why does that Makefile set TARGET_NAME in the manner:

CPPFLAGS+=      -I. -I${GCCARCH} ${G_ALL_CFLAGS:M-D*} 
${G_INCLUDES:M-I*:N-I.*} \
                 -DTARGET_NAME=\"${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}-netbsd\"

instead of using ${MACHINE_GNU_PLATFORM} in TARGET_NAME?
Currently TARGET_NAME doesn't have -netbsdelf for those formerly
a.out platforms.  And shouldn't TARGET_NAME have "--" instead of "-"?
It does in the Makefiles produced by configure...
