* [PATCH] configure: Check whether we can compile the s390-ccw bios with -msoft-float

The -msoft-float switch is not available in older versions of Clang.
Since we rely on the compiler to not generate floating point instructions
unexpectedly, we block those old compilers now via a test in the configure
script. Note that for some weird reasons, the Clang compiler only complains
about the missing soft-float support if no other flags are passed via
"-Wl,..." to the linker. So we have to use "compile_object" instead of
"compile_prog" for this check.

Do you believe that we should have caught the various clang
specialties now?

It's maybe better to use compile_object for testing -msoft-float anyway 
since it could influence the way of linking against libraries (if I get 
https://reviews.llvm.org/D72189 right).

Apart from one compiler warning that just popped up today, yes. I'm seeing 
this compiler warning with Clang 12.0 now:

roms/SLOF/lib/libnet/ipv6.c:447:18: warning: variable length array folded to 
constant array as an extension [-Wgnu-folding-constant]
                 unsigned short raw[ip6size];
                                ^

... not sure what to do with that one yet.

  Thomas

Fix it? =)
