	I understood the kernel was fine as it doesn't use FPU
	instructions - its only the userland.

	Just an off the wall thought - how much better are things if
	just the libraries are compiled with -msoft-float? Various
	other ports have conditionals to pick a different libm or
	similar based on cpu type.
