RC2 is as buggy as RC1. Nothing is really changed in this version. There are two Browsers and both are the same. Totally unusable in practical world.

Probably hardware floating point vs software floating point ?

armv7l = mfloat-abi=softfp, armv7hl = mfloat-abi=hard

Basically, instead of passing floating point values in integer registers when calling a function, it passes them in floating point registers.

It's significantly faster for many UI things. But also ABI incompatible with softfp.

I attempted using both versions, and felt all slower than Rc1.
And i'm too disappointed rather than my expectations due to no more changes, otherwise it maybe taken place in code (actually, i don't know).
Well, it's my impression, and it'll discourage me to try Rc2, and next versions till final version.

What file do we need to get btw?

meego-handset-armv7hl-n900/
meego-handset-armv7l-n900-devel/
meego-handset-armv7l-n900/

Could somebody help clarify what the diffierence is between them?
