Downloading http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.dai0098a/DAI0098.zip
(linked at the bottom of http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.dai0098a/index.html) unpacks to a Windows installer :-/

There is a vfp-support-license.txt file I put here
https://gist.github.com/DanielO/b83a7872a61251109de1

IANAL but it doesn't look BSD compatible.

There are 2 CAB files in there, 'unshield' unpacks them OK but the library is just binary so it seems useless. The 2 CAB files seem identical contents but different MD5s (no idea why).

Looking a bit more, I'm not sure what the library in it is actually for - there is vfp_init.s which doesn't seem to actually DO that much.
