Well, EABI will most likely be upcoming as the default in the new TI
versions. It will make no sense to use such an old legacy stuff mostly
incompatible with the majority of the rest.

Also, 7.2 was released a quite while ago, more than 2 years. If one still
uses that version, that is likely a call for troubles. Texas Instruments
discourage that, at least in our case, anyhow.

By the way, Qt will have the EABI by default instead of the COFFABI. Here
you can see the progress for that:

... and more to come.
