This is not a place to discuss "how do I build my own toolchain"
problems. There are existing, known to be working toolchains (like
the EKLDK), there are working build scripts (like crosstools), etc.
Many working options. If you chose to use a non-working one this is
off topic here.

Why would you need HW FP for a ARM system? Have you access to an ARM
processor with FPU? Which one is this?
