I assume you meant i386-coff, not "i386-coft". Basically, you choose the target
you want, depending on whether you want to work in an a.out, COFF, or ELF
object module environment. ELF is generally preferred these days, so start
trying with i386-elf.

You have to have a cross compiler first before you can build a library for the
target system. Newlib is designed to be built together with the rest of the
toolchain. You need to build the whole toolchain, preferably in one swoop, as
described in the CrossGCC FAQ at
