Multiple targets in one binary is one of those things that I would
like to see us do some day. So while I wouldn't do huge amounts
of work purely to support it, if we have two designs which are
otherwise more-or-less equivalent and only one has a path available
to support multi-target binaries we should probably prefer that one.
