Re: Newlib 2.1.0 not building

[Jeff Johnston <jjohnstn at redhat dot com>]

Actually, this is caused because of a relative file path.

The right way to fix this is to change the arm/configure.in to use
ac_abs_srcdir instead of srcdir as part of host_makefile_frag.  I have
made the change and checked it in, but had problem getting an arm
toolchain to build with.

Please verify the change I made works.
