But then you will also not able to compile the sources
(at least without doing some work) even when you have
already configure sources because the make process uses
also these utils.

But you can to get the sources for binutils 2.7
for DJGPP (bnu27s.zip) make your improvements there, because
these sources are already configured and can be compiled
without bash (but still need some utilities like sed
and so on).

But here I would say, that downloading the needed tools
to configure and make binutils 2.8.1 is the better way
because the size of bnu27s.zip is not much smaller than
the size of all the needed tools to download.

And at last, if you have made this function work much faster
please send your patches to the binutils maintainer so they
will be included in the next release.

Robert
