Soft. Not all ARM processors have hardware fp.

I've gone slightly further. But I'm still, as you say, outside the black
box. See below. My ARM assembler knowledge is rusty at best though, so
going deeper is not easy.

Did that, see below. I think this means that the stuff in libgcc.a cause
the issue.
I've further looked at the content of libgcc2.c, which reveals macros
renamed from L_* to L_arm_* (commit r132837 in gcc svn). But the
description of that change seems to imply that this is all avmv6-m
related and should not affect other processors.
