Quite possibly because ftw is neither ANSI nor POSIX. You can always 
use opendir(), readdir() etc which are part of POSIX and essentially
get the same behaviour (you have to code the recursion yourself, but
that's quite trivial).

I understand that Unix95 spec does have some variant of ftw (nftw?), 
and if that's the case, then it may show up in newlib in the future.
