Also...

BR2_ARM_FPU_VFPV2=y
BR2_GCC_TARGET_FPU="vfp"
BR2_GCC_TARGET_FLOAT_ABI="hard"

I have since tried using a soft-float toolchain:

BR2_arm1176jzf_s=y
BR2_ARM_EABI=y
# BR2_ARM_EABIHF is not set
BR2_ARM_SOFT_FLOAT=y
# BR2_ARM_FPU_VFPV2 is not set
BR2_SOFT_FLOAT=y
BR2_GCC_TARGET_FLOAT_ABI="soft"

However, the same fundamental problem occurs, with the bootstrap payload 
crashing and seemingly restarting over and over again.
