I have tried this too, but it didn't help me much. Obviously, I haven't 
explained the problem clearly enough.

1. the configure went ok (at least I didn't notice anything suspicuose)
2. make succeded to build everything (bfd, opcodes, gas ...) but ld
it exits with the message:

*** ld does not support target e1-coff
*** see ld/configure.tgt for supported targets
make: *** [configure-ld] Error 1

this is the message from ld/configure.tgt which is at the end of the block

case "${target}" in

...
esac

the thing is that I have the line

e1-*-coff)  targ_emul=coff_e1 ;;

in this block, but the case somehow doesn't evaluate the alias e1-coff to 
e1-*-coff
