After seeing some mails regarding NEON support on armv7 another approach
would be to pass --cc-abi-flags="-mfloat-abi=softfp" to configure which
fixes the build on armv7 as well. Going that way the port has to be
updated after the switch to hard fp abi. Running with --disable-neon
results in a little slower regression test, 1105 seconds vs 1135 seconds.
For 64 bit arm we can pass --disable-armv8crypto. With that it will build
ok on aarch64 because we don't have __ARM_FEATURE_CRYPTO defined.
If both --disable-{neon,armv8crypto} are used we could at them to
CONFIGURE_ARGS because archs not affected would ignore them.
As there are already .if ${MACHINE_ARCH} == conditions in the makefile
this diff works for me on armv7 and aarch64:
