I don't know really.  I had to use it because that's what comes in  
the Sony Aibo SDK.  I guess newlib is not uncommon.

Hmm yeah why not, I'll see if I can find some time to do this.  It  
could've been useful to me so why wouldn't it be useful to others?

How shall I proceed, is there a test suite I can run against newlib  
to check for missing functions or something?  Or shall I simply hack  
a script that builds up one test per function mentioned in gnulib?
