There's no effort going on -- basically, it's just a matter of patch
that will cause the right options to be passed. You can find the
relevant code in darwin.jam:setup-address-model. Right now it has:

        case arm :
        {
            options = -arch armv6 ;
        }

But I presume you can make the logic more complicated.
