Should I assume that the V6 processor is optional on Dove?  Does it run
without a processor present?  Probably not.

If so, then you don't want to append to this line - doing so makes the
option visible.  If your platform _always_ has a V6 processor, select
it just like everyone else does.

The only reason to extend that conditional is if a V6 processor is
to be optional.
