Right, it uses arm-*-mingw32ce, and arm-*-cegcc (kind of like mingw vs cygwin). One of earliest local changes was to to flip to using VFP by default (and float-abi=soft), as that's all we care about for anything remotely modern. I never saw any WinCE device or emulator that supported FPA. Maybe I'll find the time and motivation to push the port to the FSF in the next release cycle. Desktop Windows on ARM is around to corner too, so I'm sure if I don't make it myself, someone will end up resurrecting the ARM PE support soon enough. -- Pedro Alves
