That's probably true, but it ought to accept armv7a-*-* (and has done
for about fifteen years, so I expect almost all packages should now have
picked up that change).  I think OE always uses the triple so there
oughtn't to be any problem in practice.

That doesn't sound very wholesome.  I don't think 'v7a' is really a
vendor name by any stretch of the imagination.
