Hi Aaron,

: I asked Joel Sherrill about it on the rtems-users list:
:

: so I did.

Fair enough - I was just asking.  I am not the official maintainer for
newlib (that would be Jeff Johnston <jjohnstn at redhat.com>) but I ran
across this same problem for a different toolchain so I was interested
to know if there were any expected problems.

: for future reference, should all rtems-specific patches be sent
: through Joel? 

Sorry I do not know.  My guess would be that having them discussed on
the rtems-users list would be the right thing to do first, and once
they are ready submitting them to the appropriate mailing list
(newlib at sources.redhat.com in this particular case).


Cheers
	Nick
