Both Linux and NetBSD mandate a particular floating point architecture as part of their ABI.  Having gas select a different one because the user wants better performance on a particular CPU is incorrect.  This patch makes gas respect the OS ABI preference over the -mcpu option.  It's still possible to force a different floating point format with -mfpu=...R.2003-06-13  Richard Earnshaw  <rearnsha@arm.com>* tc-arm.c (FPU_DEFAULT, case TE_LINUX): Default to FPU_ARCH_FPA.(FPU_DEFAULT, case TE_NetBSD): Default to FPU_ARCH_VFP for ELF,FPU_ARCH_FPA for AOUT.(md_begin): Don't try to guess the floating point architecture fromthe CPU if the OS ABI (Linux, NetBSD) mandates a particular form.
