Hello, it's a valid question. I develop software for various Unix like
platforms and for NetBSD specifically, I use its cross compiler
toolchains to build my software for different architectures, without
having access to various legacy types of hardware. All my Makefiles are
designed to work with native and cross compilers.

I'm guessing some people may have hardware which doesn't support hard
floating point and I wanted to cover that use case. I don't really need
to build sets, only distribution, so can probably work around this
issue. However I noticed the failure and wanted to ask the question.
