I think there is no official, supported, and documented way to do this
for a newlib based cross-compiler.

I'd recommend using the uberbaum tree.  You just have to remember that
the uberbaum tree is not part of the gcc project, and is mostly
unofficial, unsupported, and undocumented, so you can't expect that
problems with it will be fixed in a timely manner.

If there was an official way to do this, it would probably be something
like check out the binutils, gcc, gdb, newlib, etc. projects separately,
build them separately, install them separately, and then do something to
make gcc build right before newlib has been installed.  But that is a
lot less convenient than the unofficial uberbaum tree.  This is what you
have to do if you want to build from official releases, since there is
no uberbaum equivalent for released versions of binutils/gcc/newlib/etc.
