No, a shared library newlib version of ARM is not supported.  Currently 
the only shared library versions of newlib are x86-linux and Cygwin.

If you want to experiment, you could try modifying configure.host and 
setting:

    use_libtool=yes
    aext=la
    oext=lo
    lpfx=

before configuration.
