[patch][rfc] New Target: Toshiba Media Processor

[Jeff Johnston]

Dave.

There are a few problems, one major.

The major problem is that one of your pieces of code has a GPL license 
in it.  This is not acceptable in newlib/libgloss.  If Red Hat is the 
owner of the code, consider changing the license to the default Red Hat 
  BSD-style license which you should be able to find in COPYING.LIBGLOSS.

By default, pieces of code without a specific license fall under the 
COPYING.LIBGLOSS Red Hat clause.  If any of the code has been 
contributed by Toshiba, you need to license it properly and get their 
permission.  It would be advisable to actually put the Red Hat license 
into anything contributed by Red Hat (i.e. not just defaulted).  This 
will avoid any confusion in the future.
