Guys:
Could the next release of newlib mark all of the stub functions as
"weak" in the installed libraries? That would let users override
_write_r by simply providing their own implementation thereof.
Yes, users can currently invoke ar and objcopy to weaken stub
functions in libc.a. No, they don't seem interested in doing that...
:^)
Thanks!
