Great to move back to a snapshot and thanks for pinging Jeff. There 
maybe a chance of one more snapshot. It will depend on Sebastian's 
current newlib patches.

My only comment is once in the rtems-tools repo they are difficult to 
remove so a smaller number of patches keeps the repo a little cleaner.

It would be good to get this moving again.
