20 The recent "stable" binutils did not have adequte testing before being
21 released (and such a core system component .. the mind boggles). You
22 should down grade to 2.13.19.0.18-r1 and inject the 2.14.90.0.2 version.
23 I have had numerious problems with 2.14.90.0.2, including failed builds
24 of the same version of xfree as above (three attempts in fact), i
25 eventually tracked it down to the recent binutils upgrade, downgrade and
26 xfree should build fine.
