Do the prebuilt toolchains include newlib?

- Subject: [ECOS] Do the prebuilt toolchains include newlib?
- Bcc:
I'm new to eCos, and was glad to see that running the installation tool
provided me with a pre-built cross toolchain for my target (arm-elf). I
verified I got the tools, but what about newlib? I can't seem to find basic
stuff, like libc. The notes for building your own toolchain
(http://ecos.sourceware.org/build-toolchain.html) indicate newlib gets built
when gcc gets built, which makes me wonder what the pre-built tools
provided.
The other reason I'm looking for newlib is I have to do some porting there,
too. I've read the newlib documentation, and anticipiate having to port
newlib to deal with things like interfacing to my console device. But
where's the source? Of course, I can download newlib sources myself, but it
seems I'd be essentially building newlib from scratch. This leads me back to
my original question: Do the pre-built toolchains "come with" newlib?
Thanks,
Alan
