It is nonsensical to specify this flag when compiling -m32.  Apparently
clang uses -mabi= to set the current ABI, which isn't quite correct
(although of course the name suggests that's what it does ;-) )

'-mabi=ABI-TYPE'
     Extend the current ABI with a particular extension, or remove such
     extension.  Valid values are 'altivec', 'no-altivec',
     'ibmlongdouble', 'ieeelongdouble', 'elfv1', 'elfv2'.

(It is harmless to use it with -m32 on GCC, because the option just sets a
flag, internally).

Don't remove it, just never set it where not needed?
