On x86, there is now a sixth optional field.

The oabi syscalls probably shouldn't be part of the default set here.
Technically these are two separate ABIs, though EABI is a subset of
OABI for the most most part. Some of the calling conventions are
also different.

Hardcoding the set of ABIs in the middle of the script seems
too fragile to me, I'm worried that these get out of sync quickly.

What about n32/o32? The syscall tables are completely different here.

This skips the SPU table, but I think that's fine.

This skips the 32-bit table, though I think that one is already
planned to be discontinued in the future.

This misses the x32 table.
