Yes! Build your own toolchain but include newlib (the instructions on the 
eCos web site don't build newlib as ecos doesn't need it).

After that, just compile and run normal programs.

Go to http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/anoncvs.html and check out the 
current CVS sources, rather than use 1.3.1. And then from the same page 
download the updated host tools mentioned further down on that page.
