I've just been reading up on the included CPU (QoriQ P1013 e500v2). It does have an FPU, but it's incompatible to pretty much any other PowerPC FPU out there (Power ISA).

TL;DR: Every binary using FPU needs to be recompiled to run on this CPU.

This will definitely create huge challenges if you ever attempt to run any existing PowerUP, WarpUP, MorphOS or OS4 binaries.
