[Yhc] Backends & Bare Metal

[Thomas Shackell]

Hi Creighton,

Indeed probably the simplest way to do it would to write a minimal 
subset of the standard C library (the bits that Yhc uses) and link yhi 
against it. You could simply use empty definitions for the bits you 
didn't intend to use.

Cheers

Tom
