ah i noticed that the pdf/dvi/etc... are already pushed to the mirrors,
just not committed to cvs.
https://sourceware.org/ftp/newlib/index.html

those look even older than the html manual in cvs.  i have access to the cvs
website, but not the ftp mirror (at least i don't think i do).  any opinion
on next step ?  should we keep the binary blobs (i.e. pdf) in the ftp mirror
and not commit to cvs ?
