Re:Apple’s Bitcode Telegraphs Future CPU Plans by saurik on Tuesday June 16, 2015 @02:14PM (#9727726)
The ABI would be compatible between similar architectures: Apple has somewhat encouraged developers to provide binaries for all of armv6, armv7, and armv7s in the past, all of which are 32-bit ARM architectures. While some new features might be difficult to take advantage of without high-level information, I imagine a difference as drastic as ARM vs Thumb would be easy to pull off starting from bitcode.
