+	help
+	  The support for the ARM OABI was deprecated since a while,
+	  and has been removed completely from Buildroot. It is also
+	  deprecated in upstream gcc, since gcc 4.7. People should
+	  switch to EABI instead, which should not be a problem as
+	  long as you don't have pre-built OABI binaries in your
+	  system that you can't recompile.
