agreed.

it isn't, and should be removed. i've been working on trimming the config
considerably to get it closer to debian defaults...
i was kind of confused to see hamradio stuff defined in
debian/config/armel/config; hector's patch just copied that, and
then added debian/config/armhf/config.mx5 (which needs some considerable
cleanup).

main differences would be:
## file: "arch/arm/mm/Kconfig"
CONFIG_CPU_V7=y
CONFIG_ARM_THUMB=y
## file: "arch/arm/Kconfig"
CONFIG_VFP=y
CONFIG_VFPv3=y
probably a few more configs related to those, as well.
live well,
