Not aware of that bug, I am maintaining the four (five) arm flavors in
my spare time and that is not working well, with armv6hl and armv7hl 5.3
still missing on master branch for weeks. So adding another separately
maintained flavor to my plate will not be appreciated. I'd much prefer
the default (aarch64) and lpae (armv7hl) flavors to be reused please.

Regards,
Andreas
