Description Andrey Golovizin 2014-11-05 08:49:07 UTC 
Running crossdev arm-linux-gnueabihf results in a GCC using soft-float ABI, which is quite misleading and probably incorrect, because *abihf implies hard-float.

The arm-linux-gnueabihf triplet is used for example by the Debian ARM hard-float port[1] and its derivatives, so it is quite common, and we should support it too.

Reproducible: Always
