1) EABI will work fine on ARM920T (and other ARMv4) targets
2) Currently, until other patches, a number of the available gcc choices
do not currently build a compiler, let alone make it to the application

3) The proposed fix in 1406 attempts to ensure that down the road we don't
fall into this trap again.
