No, you don't want to base the error on anything like that.
E.g. for Solaris gcc defaults to -m32 and -m64 needs to be used.
The error should be on missing features required for COBOL
emitted after option processing during FE initialization.
The test for missing __int128 or missing IEEE quad support is
if (!targetm.scalar_mode_supported_p (TImode) || !float128_type_node)
sorry ("COBOL not supported in this configuration");
or so.
