[Mono-list] Problem with Mono on Arm target

[Spencer, Matthew]

Sorry to reply to my own mail, but I have it working now.  I hacked the
configure file to ensure that CPPFLAGS included -DARM_FPU_NONE, all of
my test apps are now working.

Thanks again for the pointer

Matt

Cheers Miguel

So what do I need to do to solve the problem?  How complex would it be
for me to sort out?  I need to get this platform operating as soon as
possible because I am trying to push Mono as an alternative to Java for
embedding in our systems.

Thanks for you help

Matt

This means that the floating point configuration for that OS/userland is
not supported by Mono.   This happens every time folks try to use it
with an unsupported configuration in exactly this location.
