No, because it's not a problem on CPUs where we can do Thumb or non-Thumb instructions, only on CPUs where we can _only_ do Thumb instructions (or the special subset of "other" instructions the core allows). On ARM v7M trying to do the blx in ARM mode isn't allowed and causes an abort (or some other exception, I forget which) to happen upon execution. -- Tom
