This was an oversight on my part. We should document this in NEWS
along with the statement of support. It will be different from the
INSTALL requirement for building the project with default configure
options. We could extend configure tests to cover this, but I think
it's excessive since a given version of binutils is not what matters,
but instead the individual capabilities that need bug fixes which
may be backported by vendors.
