Really if people still need to use binutils 2.32 and none of the newer
binutils version work for FLAT, I would call FLAT an unmaintained
use-case, which should lead us to drop support for it rather than
keeping an old binutils version around.
I don't know if there's an easy way to test an ARM noMMU build in Qemu.
https://xpack.github.io/qemu-arm/ which is a fork of Qemu, seems to
emulate STM32F429I-Discovery, which we have support for in Buildroot.
Not clear if the source is available, but since Qemu is GPLv2, I guess
the source code for this fork should be available somewhere.
Best regards,
Thomas
