Have you, like in the C example of stubdom/Makefile, propagated
TARGET_CPPFLAGS, TARGET_CFLAGS, and added a rule like is done for other
stubdom images in the "minios" paragraph of stubdom/Makefile?

That's not how it's supposed to be done. See the Cross-zlib paragraph
for instance: the cross-zlib target not only configures & builds libz,
but also installs it, the prefix being properly set during configuration
into the cross-chain directory.

It's all in stubdom/Makefile: they get installed within the
cross-root-$(GNU_TARGET_ARCH) hierarchy, where the linker finds it
thanks to the TARGET_LDFLAGS variable.

It's no magic, it's makefiles :)

You do not need to change any linker script.

Just the same way as zlib & C stubdom examples.

It should just be a matter of setting it as an alias for newlib's
memalign, by adding a macro into newlib/libc/include/malloc.h for
instance.  Ideally it should be reported to newlib's upstream actually.

Should be fixed by the patch below.

I'm a bit surprised you actually got code using cfgetospeed compiled in
the miniOS environment.  It's supposed to return something like B9600,
but that's not defined by newlib!

Same issue: how did you get that code to compile? _PC_VDISABLE is not
defined...  I believe you are not using the cross-chain flags.

Mmmm, the fsif protocol does not provide an access operation to
implement that properly. You could add a dummy implementation in
lib/sys.c that just open()/close() it and return proper error codes if
any and it should be fine for ncurses' use cases.

Add tcgetpgrp getpgrp tcflush and lstat dummy implementations.
