Yes, this is very fresh, so it's not surprising that it doesn't ship anywhere.
I only provided the info here because it would help the reporter, but it would
take a bit of work on his part to get it to use bleeding edge versions.

I was actually planning on doing a 1.6.1 release, but apart from that, icedtea6
has a history of shipping pre-release versions of CACAO for a long time, and
I'm all for keeping up that practice.

I'm also in the progress of trying to get icedtea7 to use a more recent
version. My plan of attack was to take care of PR1176 first, and immediately
after that, bump the CACAO version (PR1120). Unfortunately, there is no
progress on PR1176 because it was stalled by you:

In this particular case, it will not work without customization. Somehow CACAO
has to be coaxed into building with __ARMHF__ (configure defines that if it
sees *-gnueabihf, as referenced in comment #3).
