Yes, exactly.  The best advice I can give you is check how
libstdc++ or libmudflap are organized.  Cut-n-paste their
configury and Makefile harness.  It will be a great way of
starting to learn the workings of GCC.  Unfortunately, I'm not
very familiar with the way target libraries work in GCC.  Posting
to gcc will probably get you the help you want, be it pointers to
documentation or advice from people who have done this in the
past.

Yes.  That also means that we should work within GCC's build and
configuration framework.

Let's get you started with the copyright forms then.  Attached
are the forms and instructions you're supposed to file with the
FSF.
