Hi!
I've recently updated my ecos CVS, and made a new rom using the new hw
floating point support (I'm compiling for TWR-K70F120M). The rom
builds fine, but the application I used to work with complains during
compilation:

The application is built with HW fpu enabled, but it seems that
libgcc.a is not floating-point aware (sort-of?)... is there any new
release of the 4.6.3 gcc toolchain built with floating point support?
Or is there any guide to rebuild the 4.6.3 gcc toolchain myself?
Thanks!
Pyper.
