build failure

[Greg Schafer <gschafer at zip dot com dot au>]

Hi

Trying to bootstrap recent binutils (2.17.50.0.16 by HJ) from an ancient
RH62 system and the build is bombing in gprof. Compiler is egcs-2.91.66. Any
takers?

I guess this commit has something to do with it:

http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils-cvs/2007-04/msg00038.html

Thanks
Greg
