  Because you haven't built and installed the library yet; crt0.o is the
startup code for the C RunTime library (newlib in your case).  It sets up
the initial stack frame, calls initialisers, allocates the heap, that sort
of
thing.  Even a simple C program needs it to get running.  If you want to get
raw code out of your C-only compiler, you can try the -nostdlib flag.

  Because nothing went wrong with the compiler install, it was the library
that had the errors!
