No worries. Even if you had, you might not have caught the non-SMP case.
I only recently added a non-SMP build myself.

Is the toolchain issue out of principle (not wanting to use a cross
compiler that includes glibc) or because you did not find a cross
compiler ? Linaro provides toolchains for aarch64, though they are
only 32 bit. I built one myself using buildroot (select binutils 2.24
and gcc 4.9.1).

In general I have been quite successful using buildroot to create
toolchains, including ones for oddball architectures like score
(after patching buildroot to support it, of course).
