I thought you had the ball on this, but I don't see anything
happened since the above was written.  I could just add clauses
for my own targets, but I want this to happen, so I'll pick it
up if it's on the floor.

It seems none in approval capacity have any objection to
(figuratively) s/target-libiberty//g in toplevel/configure.ac on
all branches.  Is an --enable-target-libiberty or
--with-target-libiberty needed?  (I'd just rather not.)

What would be an approvable test procedure?
Is it enough to test it on native x86_64-linux and cris-axis-elf
(a newlib target) with old and new/breaking newlib?

At a glance this would partially fix PR47836, and completely fix
PR23656, PR47733, PR49247.

brgds, H-P
