Subject: [Bug 527720] Re: thumb2 porting issues identified: klibc uses mov.*pc


I've also touched it up to be mergeable with Debian (support v4t builds
with #ifdef).

Confirmed that installing the resulting klibc packages on my beagleboard
gives me a successfully-booting initramfs with klibc; and the
vfork/setjmptest test cases all pass in the klibc package tree.

Fixes: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/klibc/+bug/527720
