Newlib is the preferred solution for cross-compilers to embedded
solutions.  For a cross compiler which targets another UNIX computer, I
recall that the easiest thing to do is to copy the library and header
files from a target machine into the right place in your toolset.
Alternatively, you could use your cross-compiler to build the preferred C
library on *BSD.
