Built binutils-2.14 for DJGPP using cross-build from Linux: 
--target=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp --host=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp --build=i686-pc-linux.
Verified that also native build works. 

Patched bfdio.c to workaround "fill with garbage on seek over file end" bug, 
which caused earlier problems when bootstrapping gcc (mostly for GCC-3.4 
experimental versions). Perhaps it's not going to be fixed in released 
version of DJGPP soon, so workaround is needed. Patch is a different from 
posted earlier, as earlier one was terribly broken.

Now all seems to be Ok. Bootstrapped yesterday's CVS version of GCC-3.4
experimental (todays checkout doen't build for Linux, so I'm not going to try 
to build it for DJGPP ...). No serious problems except classic one with 
libtool while 'make install'

Only problem was building bnu214d.zip as 'make dvi' caused TeX errors.
Simply forced it to continue. 

I could upload archives if needed.
