Reconfiguring newlib-1.16.0 for AVR32

[Jeff Johnston]

Did you remember to specify the proper -I options on your aclocal calls? 
  You need to point to both the acinclude.m4 in the top-level newlib 
directory "and" libtool.m4 in the top-level src directory.  For example, 
for newlib/libc:

aclocal -I .. -I ../..
