Thank you again for these notes.

One question about --enable-maintainer-mode:
according to src/README-maintainer-mode,

Note that if you configure with --enable-maintainer-mode, you will need
special versions of automake, autoconf, libtool and gettext. You will
find the sources for these in ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/binutils.

Is it still true ?  The tools on the ftp site date back from 2000.   
Looks quiet old.

Tristan.
