Remove any reference to libfloat. That has gone once and for all.

Rationale:
Most of the time, soft-float problems are caused by this sucker of gcc:
it has support for soft float for all of the targets I've tried so far,
but does not activate this code until you dwelve into half a dozen of
files to make it accept to build and link the support code...

So, yes: gcc has soft-float support. And again, yes: gcc is a sucker.

     9 Hi,
    10 
    11 The appended patch fixes a typo in a low-level lock function.  It
    12 set the correct 3rd argument for the futex syscall in loop.  Sorry
    13 for missing such an embarrassing bug.
