As far as I know the only build that uses the sflt libs is the legacy armv5
linux systems.

We have some quite ugly hacks in place to support injecting the
softfloat lib on certain platforms. This is not needed anymore and
should be removed.
Is this no longer relevant to the iOS-arm build in mobile-dev? They
will need to add this back if they still need it, but perhaps in a
cleaner way.
Otherwise removal looks good.
Thanks,
David
