You might try one of the ecos lists on http://sources.redhat.com/ecos, 
for instance the ecos-discuss list.

If you ask specific question, we may be able to provide answers.  We

ecos does not use newlib.  This may or may not be a bug depending on 
what --enable-newlib does, and where it got enabled.  What specifically 
is the problem here?
