For sure this code is very low level, but I want to use some special IO features that Arm provided in a version of Newlib. Those special features are mainly used for Semihosting, or platform emulation when you emulate an Arm based hardware using the standard IO of the host to communicate.
I managed to implement some of the serial_getc, puts and so on in the board specific files but it`s not the same level of interoperability as with library linked software...

May I ask why you would want to do this?
instead of the buildin fonctions for IOs and... I`m running desperately into troubles, I tried to avoid multiple definitions but it is still not resolving all the symbols...
That is only to be expected. This code is very low-level and not at all the same as a user space library.
Is there options in the build process for doing so ?
No, and I don't see any need for it. Maybe you can explain which problem you're trying to solve.
