Allows to choose if one wants to keep or not the syscalls that are provided with
newlib. It passes the --disable-newlib-supplied-syscalls or
--enable-newlib-supplied-syscalls to the configure script. If one chooses to
disable the builtin syscalls, he/she will have to write his/her own. This can
be usefull to port newlib to a new platform/board.

The reunification of the glibc/eglibc code paths exposed a nasty
bug in the glibc build: use of PARALLELMFLAGS breaks the build.
See the explanations in that bug report against FC6:

Adds support to enable/disable IOs of floating point values
(float, double, and long double).

I ran into some minor difficulties looking through the build log for a
particular file: I wasn't interested in seeing it unpacked, but only
when it is built or installed. Adding these two levels allows me to
differentiate between those cases.
[Yann E. MORIN: Those are blind log levels, and are used only to search
in the build-log afterward.]

A few facts:
- building the C library requires a proper core compiler
- core compiler is issued from one of the core passes
- the C library is required to build libstdc++
- newlib is only built for baremetal
- in bare metal, the final compiler is issued from one of the core passes
So we need to build the C library between core pass 1 and core pass 2.
The only place is eithe libc_headers() or libc_start_files(). The most
pertinent seems to be libc_start_files().
So we build newlib from libc_start_files(), and leave libc() empty.
The newlib "team" rolls new releases about once a year (december).
This is quite a long time between releases, in case code was fixed.
So, allow user to use a CVS snapshot to benefit early from fixes
and enhancements to newlib.
newlib handles the build/host/target a bit differently as one would expect:
build : not used
host : the nachine that builds newlib
target : the machine on which newlib will run
