No. As I've explained earlier this week, -msoft-float code is simply not link-compatible with -mhard-float code.

Right. What do people mean by "default configuration"? The primary interest in MIPS these days is as an embedded platform, and the main bare-metal targets (mips-elf, mips64-elf mipsisa32-elf, mipsisa64-elf) all have -msoft-float multilibs. You don't have to do anything special to get them. Richard
