I have a bad feeling about binutils.  The binutils-2.8.1 ld can't even
link some of the shared libs in one of my projects - it spits out bogus
dynamic relocations.  The latest binutils worked fine.

I have done a test import of 2.9.1 locally and have all the necessary
patches ready-to-go if we get any noticable problems in ports.
