The transition from softfloat to hardfloat on RPI2 is turning
out to be remarkably vexatious due to old libraries not being
recognized as stale and hence not upgraded.

What's the most straightforward way to find VFP libraries and
upgrade them to hardfloat? I've been doing it piecemeal and the
task seems endless. The troublesome systems are 11-stable, with
one -current machine which matters much less.

Thanks for reading,
