Note that the NEON unit doesn't implement the deeper parts of IEEE754
floating point like NaN and exceptions.  These are needed for general
purpose applications but not, say, radial fills in graphics.  Turning
on -ffast-math allows the compiler to send floating point operations
via NEON instead of VFP.
