As stated by Steven J. Hill, there is crosstool which purpose is to built
cross-toolchains (http://www.kegel.com/crosstool) without building a full
root file system, which seems what you want. Recently, uClibc support was
added to crosstool (I did that) as a patch against mainline. Look into the
archives at http://sources.redhat.com/ml/crossgcc in late July. This is
still WIP, but is fully functionnal for me: armv5{b,l}-xscale-linux-uclibc
as targets.

On a side note, would you share your build procedure using newlib?
