Description

create_sysimage with no arguments works (though I get BUG_REPORT message)
```
create_sysimage(nothing; sysimage_path="valgrind-sysimg.so")
BUG_REPORT using Pkg; Pkg.precompile()
BUG_REPORT
⣠ [00m:40s] PackageCompiler: compiling incremental system image
```

However, if I call it with cpu_target="generic" (to use it with valgrind) it crashes
```
create_sysimage(nothing; sysimage_path="valgrind-sysimg.so", cpu_target="generic")
BUG_REPORT using Pkg; Pkg.precompile()

Research direction

Reproduce the failure with create_sysimage(nothing; cpu_target="generic") and compare it with the no-argument call. Start at src/PackageCompiler.jl around create_sysimg_object_file (line 356), then inspect the Julia command using --cpu-target=generic; done means identifying and fixing the incompatible system-image target while preserving the working default case.
