Please just use "auto", not "auto-detect", as in libgcc/configure.ac.

This seems like it should be in a different patch.

Likewise.
+ifeq ($(enable_multiarch),yes)
+ if_multiarch = $(1)
+else ifeq ($(enable_multiarch),auto-detect)
+ if_multiarch = $(if $(wildcard $(shell echo

This is nicely tricky but I don't understand why you are doing this in
such a confusing way. Why not simply set the names in config.gcc?
What information do you have at make time that you don't have at
configure time?
The auto case is not general. When cross-compiling without --sysroot,
or when using --native-system-header-dir, the test won't work.
Without --sysroot there may not be much that you can do to auto-detect
multiarch. And with --sysroot, there should be no need to use
SYSTEM_HEADER_DIR at all; just look in the sysroot.

This is quite obscure for anybody who does not already know what multiarch is.
I'm sorry, I have to repeat my extreme annoyance that this scheme
breaks all earlier GCC releases.
