Same on arm, object files seem to be tagged with the floating point abi
used (even in case the object files doesn't actually use floating point
instructions) and the linker throws errors in case there is a mismatch.

Yes, I suspect that'll work better than trying to use the
compiler-shipped intrinsics.

But in any case we should have a single intrinsic library for
everybody to use.

take care,
