As per http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-devel/2008-11/msg00012.html,
yes. However it looks like other changes are needed. If you just add
CYGPKG_IO_SPI to the target definition (not template, that is
something else) then you end up with SPI driver code even in
executables that do not use SPI. Just build the default config, then
do an objdump of install/tests/kernel/current/tm_basic, and you'll see
the spi functions.

Changing spi_at91.cdl, removing the -library=libextras.a from the
compile spi_at91_init.cxx, sorts out that problem. However I don't
have a suitable board handy right now so I cannot check that
everything still works.

So somebody needs to do some experimenting and provide a patch.
