Static build of binutils 2.16.1

Hi guys,
I've found an acceptable work-around for my problem.
The issue is that, at the difference of other GNU projects, the first configure
doesn't run subdirs's configure, but only generate the top level Makefile. In
binutils, this is the 'make' which will run configure in the subdirs.
So, I first run a simple 'make'. Then i ask for 'make clean' which deletes all
created objects, *but the generated Makefiles*, and last I rerun "make
LDFLAGS=-all-static" which is accepted this time as subdirectories's configure
are not rerun.

So :

../binutils-2.16.1/configure....
make
make clean
make LDFLAGS=-all-static
make install

is my solution.

I thank you for your interest.
Regards
Pierre
