Also have alook at www.codesourcery.com they are sponsored by ARM for the
gcc port.
I always find the best solution is to build your own toolchain, as I find
newlib which seems to be the standard c library is a bit hungry for smaller
arm micros. Especially with the default config options.
I have just built a gcc 3.4.3 based toolchain with uclibc which has a
smaller footprint.
