I need to think about this a bit.  The object file is arguably buggy in that it
says that it uses hw fp, but doesn't say which version.  But if we report an
error (or a warning) we probably should do that for all input objects, not just
the first on the list.

Also, if we agree the object is buggy, we should probably have code in the
assembler to fault that when the object is created.  We should also warn if a
deprecated tag value is picked, though I'm a little worried that might cause
problems with version skew when used with older GCC releases - but perhaps
tsktsk is good enough.
