Which system are you building for, which lack even software floating
point? Is it for native or cross compile? I wonder if it can be handled
better automatically, instead of introducing yet another configure flag.
Some possibilities:

1. Have a configure check for working floating point, and disable
   programs depending on floating point.

2. When cross compiling, don't cross compile those tools, but instead
   create binaries for the build machine.
