hmm.... interesting; I got a similar response from someone else ... so you 
used the latest bootloader with the -current sources.... what configuration 
did you use?

could you try without the ARMFPE ? There might be some problems since heaps
have changed in this area... I dont have an A7000 to test and develop on
but I do have a NC but thats offline now too due to failing network cards 
:(
