configure: error: can not find sources

[Srivatsan Raghavan]

Hi,
   I recently downloaded binutils-2.15.tar.gz from sources.redhat.com/binutils web site. I want to build binutils for arm on a cygwin platform running on Windows-XP. 

I went through the initial steps as follows

mkdir -p /tmp/build/binutils
cd /tmp/build/binutils
/src/binutils-2.15/configure --target=arm-elf --prefix=/tools -v 2>&1

The configure command gives me the following error message

configure: error: can not find sources in  or ..

Can anyone please let me know as to what I am missing here?

Thnx
Srivatsan
