That's what the patches you didn't apply would have accounted for.

The master location for patches has moved and we converted to git
from CVS since 4.10.x. Patches should be here:

http://git.rtems.org/rtems-tools.git/

This sounds like an odd host issue. What host and where it did crop up?

This really doesn't sound like an RTEMS issue. Most of our code is cross. :)

The Doxygen output may help some.

If you have questions or spot issues, report it. We try to kill typos
and improve comments.

Feedback with patches is even better. :)

It has been in there a long time.  But like most projects, after a tool 
release,
we sometimes end up with patches to their releases. And newlib only has
releases once a year with almost no history of .1 releases so that tends to
mean we always need patches for newlib.
