: that strikes me as a bad idea, since you could then end up with
: include files that reference functions that aren't implemented in libc
: yet, for example: __unsetenv13, __sigaction14, ...
That is exactly the reason I was given when I made a similar query
when the toolchain build system was introduced :-) Your tools need to
build with a matching set of includes & libs.
