Right, we could adjust the text in the “GNU Distribution” node of the
manual (we did that before when mips64el-linux was supported without
substitutes.)

Mathieu, what’s preventing us from doing armhf-linux builds again?  We
could use the OverDrives for that (with an upper bound though), along
with the SBCs in machines-for-berlin.scm.

That won’t be enough to keep up, so perhaps we’ll have to restrict
armhf-linux builds to the “core” subset or the release-manifest.scm.

Thoughts?

Ludo’.
