Which conflict are you talking about?

Newlib's stdint.h conflicting with gcc's stdint.h at compile-time?

Not yet, this is WIP, and you guys are just testing it ;)

The only hack inside of this patch is the "rm stdint.h". 

It's a short-cut to circumvent non-trivial surgery in newlib's and/or gcc's
configuration. Not having resolved this issue is one reason for me to call this
"WIP".

The reason for not having implemented this all as patches but to script it is
to allow it to be used conditionally. Otherwise I'd have to provide split
patches and to conditionally apply them.
