I was also having a chat with Catalin about an alternative way of making
VFP optimisations available.

I observed that Handhelds Mojo addresses architecture variants by having
special package servers which are placed at the start of the apt sources
list.  See http://mojo.handhelds.org/hasty-armv6el-vfp/ for details of
how it's done.

I haven't looked into the details, but it's feasible to share most
packages between a specialised package server location and the standard
server.

This approach could be used to make VFP-optimised versions of
application packages available as well as libraries without the need to
install all variants on each platform and choose at run-time.

Does anyone have a view on this?
