I know there are but for some distros in OE have established "armv7a"
with a specific meaning. This gives us some way of merging the tune code
yet defer fixing those conflicts which can then happen at a time of
their choosing.
Its assumed anyone enabling the option knows what it means (which
Angstrom does and is where the request came from).
FWIW I have just merged the tune changes and this workaround flag.
Cheers,
Richard
