It did _not_ solve the issue, because Lijun did not have BR2_ARM_ENABLE_VFP
enabled, which meant he also did not have BR2_ARM_CPU_HAS_VFPV3 enabled.

Instead, he did use BR2_ARM_CPU_MAYBE_HAS_VFPV3 which is wrong.

Lijun must enable BR2_ARM_ENABLE_VFP in his config, if his CPU (cortex-a9)
indeed has a VFP. If not, then he'll be stuck with nodejs 0.10.x and
there is nothing we can do about that.

Nothing to investigate here on our side.

Yann E. MORIN.
