Because glibc is complicated enough as it is, and using newlib helps remove the doubt that comes with a broken build cobbled together from hand-placed headers. Yes, it burns a ton of (possibly needless) CPU cycles, but when something breaks, you don't have to worry so much about if it is something you screwed up with your 'cp' and 'find' procedure. I'm starting on updates to CrossGCC FAQ next week, now that I've almost caught up from being away from the office for two weeks. I'm hoping to answer some of the questions like this that keep coming up over and over again. b.g. -- Bill Gatliff bgat@open-widgets.com ------ Want more information?
