Angstrom already enables softfloat (for FPU-less systems) and -Os by
default *and* enables iwmmxt (if you have MACHINE_FEATURES = "iwmmxt")
for apps which have been proven to benefit from iwmmxt (e.g. mplayer).

I still get mysterious segfaults when running an all iwmmxt glibc system
(uclibc is even worse), so I don't think flipping the global switch is a
good idea.
