Does type2-runtime support armv6l? #112

Hi, I tried to build an AppImage with ARCH=armhf using appimagetool, but I receive a Segmentation Fault when running it on my RPI 1B which is armv6l. From digging around it looks like the runtime is being built using armv7 for the armhf target.

My two questions about this are: am I correct that armv6l isn't currently supported? And if so, are there any plans to support it in the future, or is there some technical reason it's not possible?

Thanks!

Thanks @mediocregopher. That's not intentional. Let's try whether the pull request above can fix it.

@probonopd I tested with the armhf runtime in the PR and it worked perfectly 👍 🚀 From what I understand that should be backwards compatible with armv7, but I don't have any devices handy to confirm that with, so might be good to do that if possible before merging.

ARMv6 hasn't been supported for many(!) years. I'm not even sure that the compiler produces an ARMv6 compatible binary when run as shown in #113. @mediocregopher please try the runtime binary from there and comment on the PR.
