...Is it even possible to run hardfloat binaries/chroot on soft float kernel/system?
PI version of ADOM (console only though) runs perfectly on N900. Even graphical apps like VVVVVV (from pandora) will run, though they suffer from no app-focus (maemo-only problem afaik with SDL, damned wm_seticon was it?), so ARM things should in theory run. Getting all the libs and hoping they do not depend on newest glibc is a bit of a hit and miss though. Probably same problem once sailfish thing comes out with Myriad's aliendalvik, hopefully things like meecolay will popup once they reach market.
