They are archived as a change request / bug report. Look into problem reports (under Search GNATS database), it has the number gnu/3157. I *know* the patches itself are still usable with freebsd-current. The old instructions included with them may be slightly wrong because of changed paths. Alternatively you could use binutils-2.8.1 (from gnu). It includes gas with MMX instructions. But then you cannot debug your programs. -- Helmut F.
