Yes. The libgcc library contains C operations such as divide, mod, multiply...
(you are missing a divide and mod operator below). Such operations require
target-specific code and sometimes are too big/complex to generate in-line so the compiler
creates functions for them and generates calls whenever C code (including newlib) uses them.
They do not belong in the C library as they are part of supporting the
C language for the platform.
