Both binutils and GCC had support for generic ARM in pre-Linux days. You
should be able to trace the history of these early contributions from the
ChangeLog files in the respective packages.

I don't believe there is much or any commonality there. The Linux C library
has always been derived from the GNU libc -- Linux libc4 was based on GNU libc
1.x. As far as I know NetBSD's libc is a completely independent effort.
