Don't try to build Binutils 2.9.1 with instructions from Binutils
2.8.1. Most of those instructions are not valid for the newer release
of Binutils, because almost all the problems that those instructions
are meant to handle are already taken care of in v2.9.1 by patches
sent to the maintainer since v2.8.1 was released.
You need a set of scripts and instructions to build Binutils 2.9.1. I
think you can find these in the DJGPP mail archives at
http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/mail-archives/. If you cannot find
anything in the archives of the djgpp list, look in the archives of
the djgpp-workers list.
In any case, do NOT apply the m68hc patches before you succeed in
building the unaltered distribution. Otherwise you will not know
where did the problems come from.
