I thought that Ã˜yvind had this problem with my build prior to the
last one, which didn't have the mingw-local patches. Ã˜yvind?

Should I put out a new release with a prior version of binutils? Or
the new release candidate? Should I just stop combining binutils
and gcc like Andrew suggested (and like I have been tempted to
do on more than one occasion)?
Does this binutils bug have anything to do with my segfault when
trying to build libgcj.dll? If so, will I perhaps fare better with the
release candidate?
