What directories didn't it work in?  I assume $DJDIR/bin didn't?  Was
that the only one?

It shouldn't be required.  I know that for x86 targets exception 
handling won't work unless you have binutils 2.8.1 or later, but
that is for all versions of gcc.  Do you get a specific error or
something?  I have pgcc users who use binutils 2.7 and even older 
,2.5 I think, version with no troubles.
