soft-float builds
Further to my recent soft-float changes, I'd like to add an option to
the bsd.*.mk files to turn on building soft-float binaries for platforms
that usually default to "normal" floating-point enabled code.
What I was thinking was something along the lines of a
MKSOFTFLOAT= yes|no
make variable, which would do things like add "-msoft-float" to the CC
and CXX (and FC?) variables, and be used in the libc/arch/* makefiles
(or even just libc/Makefile) to enable softfloat support in libc.
Any comments on this, or better ways to do it?
This raises a further question about whether or not we should have a
separate MACHINE_ARCH for softfloat-built userlands and what it should
be called (soft<arch>, soft-<arch>, ...). Any ideas here will be
appreciated...
Simon.
