Artur,

  You can add flags by specifying TARGET_CFLAGS=xxxx on your make 
invocation.  The makefiles in the lower levels have:

INCLUDES=$(NEWLIB_CFLAGS) $(CROSS_CFLAGS) $(TARGET_CFLAGS)

For things such as -DREENTRANT_SYSCALLS_PROVIDED, unless you are doing 
an experiment, this should be something you put in your platform's 
newlib_cflags setting in newlib/configure.host
