 Hmm, I'm not familiar to OpenSSL internals, but it seems no
 new files for 32-bit arm have been added to
 crypto/external/apache2/openssl/lib/libcrypto/arch/arm...
 
 Some updates: the test works just fine for evbarmv{6,7}{,hf}eb.
 For softfloat variants, the situation does not change if
 libc_vfp.so is enabled or not.
 
 Thanks,
