Thanks for taking the time to follow up.

I'm curious about this bit of %build:

...
mkdir build-binutils; cd build-binutils
../%{_binutils}/configure --target=%{cross_target} --prefix=%{_prefix} \
  2>&1 | tee configure.log
make all install 2>&1 | tee make.log
make prefix=%{buildroot}%{_prefix} install 2>&1 | tee -a make.log
...

Won't the "make all install" try to write into %{_prefix}? The "install" 
is a mistake, no?

I'm also curious about:

export PATH=${PATH}:%{buildroot}%{_prefix}/bin

Shouldn't that be:

export PATH=%{buildroot}%{_prefix}/bin:${PATH}
