For most of its history, RTEMS had few direct dependencies on a C Library. The addition of SMP saw the beginning of a tighter integration of newlib and RTEMS. When schedsim was developed, only the affinity and a couple of other things required work arounds with glibc. Now that we are using more from newlib that originated in FreeBSD such as the time structures. Building a native gcc with newlib at least opens the door to having the same .h files. Beyond that, it is logically building the core of RTEMS as a Linux user space application. The "port" is just sufficient to make the RTEMS code think it is context switching something.
