Indeed, that's another instance of the tricky multilibs configuration issues.
In this case:
- we configure GCC: --disable-multilib --with-mode=thumb
--with-cpu=cortex-m7 --with-float=hard --target=arm-eabi
(we disable multilibs to save build time)
- we run the tests with
qemu/-mthumb/-march=armv7e-m+fp.dp/-mtune=cortex-m7/-mfloat-abi=hard/-mfpu=auto
which matches the GCC configuration flags,
but the vect.exp tests add -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp -march=armv7-a
and link fails because the toolchain does not support softfp libs

HTH

Thanks,

Christophe
