Why not ask on an appropriate list - as I have no idea what LINKLOC
takes as input and output I cannot even guess at the feasability of
this. If the actual platform has no source-level differences prevent
newlib, or libiberty from being targeted then this could shave a lot of
time off, I suppose, but it would make building your distributed source
very hard for your users.
