I've gotten confused here and mixed up TUNE_ARCH and TUNE_PKGARCH but
there was a reason.

The missing piece is 

TUNE_PKGARCH ?= "${TUNE_ARCH}"

and the trouble comes when a tune file wants to change this only when
its tune config is in action.

I'm thinking ahead to trying a mixed ppc 32 and 64 bit build where
TUNE_PKGARCH needs to take on the values for both configs.

The trouble is the spe pieces which seemed to imply TARGET_FPU should
take on a value of other than "soft". Setting it to "soft" if fpu-hard
isn't in TUNE_FEATURES therefore wasn't enough...

I guess this should be a feature file like thumb on arm?

I'm just migrating the existing code in that regard, I'm also puzzled as
to where that is getting set currently.

No, TUNE_ARCH should be TUNE_PKGARCH above, then this makes more
sense...

Fair enough.

which is? :)

ok, so its hard-fpu...

so hard-fpu?
