I assume you meant to refer to newlib-1.8.0 as (we don't have a 2.8.0).

The obvious idea that comes to mind is that you are not using GNU make.  You can
ftp it from:  ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu:/pub/gnu

For reference, you might want to look at the following FAQ:

ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/embedded/crossgcc/FAQ-0.8.1

It is a little out of date, but still contains a lot of pertinent information.
