Well, I read somewhere that EABI allows mixing soft-float and hard-float
code and must have assumed it was true. But you made me doubt.

But since compiling both a hard-float program and a soft-float program
with the same toolchain does not produce any compilation or link-edition
error, I still tend to think it is true.

I just need to run the test on actual hardware to finish checking.
