Hi,

Doing some work with embedded systems, I've found need for Newlib for
arm-none-eabi. Specifically, I'm doing work at the moment with Arduino Dues and
Zeros. The --disable-newlib-supplied-syscalls is required for most of the work
I do, and this seems to be the standard over in ArchLinux-land as well, for
what that's worth.

Quote, pkg-descr:

Newlib is a C library intended for use on embedded systems. It is
a conglomeration of several library parts, all under free software
licenses, that make them easily usable on embedded products.

The licensing of Newlib is quite messy, so I've omitted LICENSE for the time
being. It has a hodge-podge of GPL* and BSD* licenses applied to different
parts of it (and 9 different COPYING* files), so intuition tells me I should
probably hunt down all of these and LICENSE_COMB= multi it to play on the safe
side, since some of them are more restrictive than others. Thoughts?

Tested building with Poudriere (9.3 amd64, 10.3 amd64, 11.0 amd64) as well as
Synth (recent -CURRENT).
