I believe that my cross-compiled bootstrap tarballs are bad and have to
be rebuilt. Despite passing both --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf and
--with-float=hard to GCC's configure, I believe that GCC was using the
soft-float ABI for ARM by default. This is especially bad given that
our dynamic linker has a name that indicates the hard-float ABI.
For now, I've pushed another commit to the 'wip-armhf' branch that will
hopefully make it *cross-build* armhf bootstrap tarballs properly, but
it is not yet suitable for building on an arm box because it refers to
the existing (bad) bootstrap tarballs.
I'll post an update when this issue is resolved.
Mark
