The PATH doesn't make any difference, only what the command `gcc
-print-prog-name=ld' prints does.

I've got this very same problem when building gcc 2.95 when I
configured it to use GNU ld and GNU as, but I hadn't updated my
installation script to create the links to GNU ld and GNU as in the
installation tree, as recommended in the FAQ (which I myself wrote!
:-)

Maybe the binary distribution you got is supposed to use ld and as
from GNU binutils?  Better check the docs.
