Some programs contain const strings of MACHINE_ARCH.
If soft-float m68k uses m68000 for MACHINE_ARCH,
it's acceptable for me, though.

BTW, hpcmips people decided to implement FPE rather than
using -soft-float to keep binary compatibility with other mips ports.
(even though all hpcmips machines lack FPU)
