In 2012 a patch was added for the brcm2708 build platform to use hardware
floating point.
Looks like the patch was committed too.
https://lists.openwrt.org/pipermail/openwrt-devel/2012-July/016028.html

-mfpu=vfp            -   enables use of hardware floating point
instructions. (in patch already)
-mfloat-abi=hard   -   makes calling hardware floating point more efficient.

Can this patch be added back in? I would like to be able to take
advantage of the floating point hardware. I wonder if the patch was
not included in the 12.09 tree?

Quick search didn't reveal any reasons why it might have been removed.

Thanks

     Derek
