Supposedly the interrupt code of the OS does not save and restore the 
"running in Thumb mode" flag. So you are out of luck with non-Thumb code.

This is obviously a shortcoming due to the arrogance of the creator of 
the OS, thoughtlessly castrating the high-performance feature of the 
processor.

This strictly recommends not to use this OS.
