is implemented using BFD's compatible method (a->compatible
(b) == a -- the lowest common denominator between a and b is
a). That method's definition of compatible may not be as you
expect. For instance, while "amd64 can run code for i386"
(or more generally "64-bit ISA can run code for the 32-bit
ISA"). Fortunatly, BFD doesn't normally consider 32-bit and
64-bit "compatible" so won't get a match. */
