I've tested this on aarch64 and there were no problems. It also
provides a nice framework for other architectures as they become
supported.

What is the benefit of this patch?  I'd prefer to keep libstdc++-boot0
identical across architectures for simplicity, unless there is a good
reason to do otherwise (say, porting to a new architecture).

Now we could end up in a situation where someone patches GCC5 on
'master' and accidentally triggers a full rebuild on AArch64.

Sound reasoning. And currently most of the porting work makes use of
GCC7 and not GCC5. I'm closing this bug.
