That's great news! Note that we usually keep copies of build dependences at ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/infrastructure/ and there's currently no nvptx newlib variant there. Maybe you can prepare a tarball that's ready to plug into gcc sources with the nvptx support included? Otherwise OK. Btw, can you also update the GCC wiki with regarding to this change?
