Well, it seems that you know how to use OABI with gcc 4.7, so you can
make the necessary changes in Buildroot to make this happen:
(1) Re-enable the possibility of selecting OABI even if gcc 4.7 is
selected
(2) Pass the --enable-obsolete gcc configure flag to gcc when gcc 4.7
and OABI are selected.
That said, doing an OABI build today seems really, really awkward, and
I am not sure we will be really interested in a patch that explicitly
makes use of features considered obsolete by gcc people.
Best regards,
Thomas
