License.  The extra Linux stuff is mostly under GPL.  This isn't
feasible for many projects using newlib.  If you want to provide a C99
complex lib under BSD or similar license, it would be highly
appreciated.  NetBSD, for instance, has one(*).  Probably it just needs
some tweaking to fit into the newlib build system.
