I don't consider it a big problem (just a bit sad) if  ELDK 4.2 cannot
be used for building these.  However, I think it is not acceptable
tobuild known-to-be-broken images.  If the tool chain is too old, this
shall result in a clear error message and abort of the build.


Why is thumb mode needed for these boards?  Just because of image
size?

Best regards,
