Historical baggage, most likely. 

OK, so would you be opposed to removing it? We already are using the
patch below for bfin-rtems* for quite a while, but I am sure if we are
correct in doing so (We are using binutils-2.17)

Sure, please install. We'll re-add it if anything breaks.

Do you have any idea in which version of binutils the bug the comments
in t-bfin* refer to has been addressed?

I don't even have an idea of what the bug is (if any).
