There are two arm abis as you probably know, the "oabi" and "eabi". The original 1.1.x port by Naulls for some reason didn't make its way into the 2.0 codeline even though it was in the 1.1.x one. I updated it to work again with the bridge changes made during the 2.x.y codeline and remerged it back in and fixed up a few little things and then extended it to also work for the eabi (soft-float). So those updated uno bridges are back in to OOH680, i.e. the up and coming 2.4.0 version. I did the port and testing on qemu with debian for oabi arm and fedora for eabi arm. qemu doesn't emulate arm hardware alignment issues I believe, so you may need to build on a real arm and do some testing to see if there are any outstanding alignment problems. But for testing purposes the installsets of the first development versions of the new eabi port and updated oabi port are still available from http://ooo.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/cws/upload/armeabiport01/ and http://ooo.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/cws/upload/armoabiport01/ Though I would reccommend you build your own 2.4.0 OOH680_mX candidate from scratch for real testing, e.g. I built the armeabi one with java disabled, but since those install sets were created gcj for arm-eabi has since become available so the java components should now be possible to build.
