I've finally managed to get it to compile again.
Ethernut was missing calloc and strdup:

Not sure if it was missing in the original Ethernut code, or happened
when merging my own changes in.

Since I saw similar problems on the list without real answers:
For the people seeing similar problems with multiple definitions.
It took the implementations fom newlib, which the sucked in invalid
and colliding syscall based implementations.
I removed the unuseable objectfiles from the lib:
arm-elf-ar d libg.a syscalls.o
A few more deletes up to deleting the wrong calloc and strdup I've
found out the missing Ethernut source files.
The same symptoms can be produced by other missing files as well.

Runtime test not done yet.
