That README change is incorrect.

-       powerpc-*-linux-gnu     Hardware or software floating point
+       powerpc-*-linux-gnu     Hardware floating point required, BE only.

This wrongly reverts part of the README adjustment I made yesterday when 
moving the soft-float support from ports into libc.  Soft-float (BE) is, 
as of yesterday, a supported libc configuration.
