Actually, I did backport the binutils message, but toned it down:

20000706:
	Binutils were updated.  In order to build a kernel after this
	date, you must follow the updating procedure for building
	kernels exactly as presented here.  You may be able to get away
	with doing it the old way, but if it breaks, make sure that you've
	tried the "To build a kernel" section with a fresh /usr/obj
	first.

which isn't as much detail as in the -current entry, but should set
off alarm bells as a place to start.

I now return you to the content free flamewar normally appearing in
this space. Enjoy it without me.
