Use case

 - configure special armv6-vfp build (|TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT := armv6-vfp| in BoardConfig.mk)
 - build entire FFOS system
 - "b2g" process crashes on startup, rest of gonk layer seems to work fine

A quick peek shows gecko was configured for armv7-a/NEON, oops.

Mostly filing for completeness, because the world has moved on from armv6 (except a little corner of it I'm dwelling in atm).  Will most likely resort to splatting over the default gonk mozconfig using repo.
Should add that |GECKO_CONFIGURE_ARGS := --with-arch=armv6| wfm, but this is going to keep being an annoyance going forward so would be nice to fix.
