Zig is 6 years old, and years-old issues exist in their task tracker requesting support for some of these targets.

You _cannot_ simply recompile LLVM to support the targets I listed without using unsupported, risky patches from community sources; if any such patches exist. The multiple architecture support in one binary is a pointless feature when installing multiple GCC builds only takes a tiny, insignificant fraction of my development machine's disk space. Never in my life have I thought "Wow, I'd really speed up development if GCC was one enormous binary holding all possible targets."

Zig's best path forward is to support targeting C as a first tier target; which they seem to be interested in doing.
