just a heads up that i've largely "completed" the work that i intend to on the
libgloss & newlib build systems.  hopefully people find it better off than when
i started.  i'll still be around, so if i introduced a regression, i'm happy to
take a look.  if people have questions, hopefully the documentation updates i
merged will cover it, or i can explain things as needed.  but other than the
few minor patches i've already posted, i don't have anything else scheduled.
i'm off to find another project to procrastinate on instead.

Thanks a lot for your great work in cleaning up and documenting the 
Newlib build system. I think this was a really big step for Newlib 
maintainability.

I second that.  Getting newlib's build system up to speed like this is a
major improvement and tackling that was a heroic task.

Thanks a lot!

Explaining it to Google Summer of Code students interested in adding
some capability was very frustrating. It generally took a while before they
could add anything.

Speed improvements are always great but this was a huge win in the
simplicity department.

This is very much appreciated.

Hello Mike,

just for your information. I built the following RTEMS targets

* aarch64-rtems
* arm-rtems
* bfin-rtems
* i386-rtems
* lm32-rtems
* m68k-rtems
* microblaze-rtems
* mips-rtems
* moxie-rtems
* nios2-rtems
* or1k-rtems
* powerpc-rtems
* riscv-rtems
* sh-rtems
* sparc64-rtems
* sparc-rtems
* v850-rtems
* x86_64-rtems

with Newlib 64b208103d284e8b64db604b34736a861e14b927, Binutils 2.38, and 
the latest GCC 10 and master branches. I built also all RTEMS BSPs with 
tests. It looks all good now. Thanks again for your great work.
