soft-float/hard-float warnings at kernel link time?

["John D. Baker" <jdbaker%mylinuxisp.com@localhost>]

I just noticed this during my latest update build (mips64el):

#      link  YEELOONG/netbsd_nfs
/d0/build/current/tools/amd64/bin/mips64el--netbsd-ld -Map netbsd_nfs.map --cref -m elf64ltsmip -T netbsd_nfs.ldscript -Ttext 0xFFFFFFFF80200000 -e start -G 0 -X -o netbsd_nfs ${SYSTEM_OBJ:N*swap*netbsd*} ${EXTRA_OBJ} vers.o swapnetbsd_nfs.o
/d0/build/current/tools/amd64/bin/mips64el--netbsd-ld: Warning: netbsd_nfs uses -msoft-float (set by locore.o), mips_fpu.o uses -mhard-float
/d0/build/current/tools/amd64/bin/mips64el--netbsd-ld: Warning: netbsd_nfs uses -msoft-float (set by locore.o), fp.o uses -mhard-float
[...]

The above is my custom kernel but the base LOONGSON also shows:

#      link  LOONGSON/netbsd
/d0/build/current/tools/amd64/bin/mips64el--netbsd-ld -Map netbsd.map --cref -m elf64ltsmip -T netbsd.ldscript -Ttext 0xFFFFFFFF80200000 -e start -G 0 -X -o netbsd ${SYSTEM_OBJ:N*swap*netbsd*} ${EXTRA_OBJ} vers.o swapnetbsd.o
[...]
/d0/build/current/tools/amd64/bin/mips64el--netbsd-ld: Warning: netbsd uses -msoft-float (set by locore.o), mips_fpu.o uses -mhard-float
/d0/build/current/tools/amd64/bin/mips64el--netbsd-ld: Warning: netbsd uses -msoft-float (set by locore.o), fp.o uses -mhard-float
[...]

(The output was split up by my "-j 5" build.)

Other stock kernels show similar messages.

I see these in the logs from the TNF builds as well.  Harmless, or?

Thanks.
