it should be easy to backfill manuals for each release if we wanted.
something like:
https://sourceware.org/newlib/
	# current versions
	libc.html
	libm.html
	libgloss.html
	# old releases
	manual/
		4.3.0/
			libc.html
			libm.html
			libgloss.html
		4.1.0/
			libc.html
			libm.html
			libgloss.html
		...

the html pages are checked into git.  so i could send a patch if someone
would merge it (i don't have push access to the htdocs repo).

there's also pdf and such files, but those are only uploaded to the ftp
server, and i don't have access to that either.

before i write a script to do the backfill, would be nice to hear a signal
from the newlib maintainers that this would be accepted.
