Seems reasonable to me (we aren't really copying the FreeBSD
implementation, just the interface). Default newlib licensing is fine;
it's also okay if you list yourself as author instead of me (I didn't
test my code, only suggested it), although if you want to put authorship
on my shoulders that's also okay.
