Arm toolchain with gcc / newlib / VFP / hard float - can it be done?

[Freddie Chopin]

You should check bare-metal linaro toolchain:

or you could check my variation of it (the build script is mostly 
identical with minor tweaks):

You'll need to add another multilib option, but that would be all you 
need to change...
