Hello!
At the moment I am only asking. I've downloaded the snaps from the
past two days, haven't used them, and simply asked these questions.

Chris, I only asked, I don't want to add, or subtract any features.

As for newlib..... That's the part I am thinking about. It's the way
the whole business might or might not interact with the idiotic way
Microsoft does things.
