I've discovered an issue with how the Built-Using fields are generated.

Specifically, because gcc-sh-elf does not set a Built-Using field for Newlib, 
and because of the way the libnewlib-sh-elf-dev binary package is currently 
versioned, there is no way to precisely tell what version of the Newlib source 
package was used to generate libnewlib-sh-elf-dev and hence which gets baked 
into the carl9170 binaries. That means we can't set the Built-Using field right.

Fortunately this does not have to be fixed in Newlib: it can be fixed 
completely in gcc-sh-elf, so I will simply prepare a new upload that changes 
the format of the version numbers so we can tell what version of the Newlib 
source package was used. When ready, I will send an RFS for that package and 
mark it as blocking this one.
