https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/?all=1 shows the main-armv7
builds are happening on a regular basis (3 to 5 times a month).
But they result in:

stopped:crashed:

or, in some cases, the first port failed (pkg) and
everything else was skipped.

For the stopped:crashed: ones, 15000+ ports were also skipped
before the crash.

There is no native armv7 build server, nor is an aarch64 one
used that can execute armv7 code as well. Instead the builds
are attempted on amd64 systems with qemu --and that is
problematical.

I once tested bulk -a for targeting armv7 on a 16-core Cortex-A72
system (a HoneyComb). As I remember, it took somewhat under a
week the way I did it for how I had that system configured
(for example: Optane-in-PCIe-slot as the media). It generally went
much better than the official builds.
