  Exactly. On a panda board for example, it possible to run all
combinations of chroots created with a gcc built with
--with-float=softfp or --with-float=hard
--with-mode=thumb or --with-mode=arm
--with-fpu=vfpv3-d16 or --with-fpu=neon
Those I know for sure, as I did build all combinations some time ago.
