There are little endian and big endian versions of the arm arch, so the 
triplet needs a "b" in it if it's big endian (e.g. armv7b).  I guess 
when I was building the binutils I didn't realize that the arch had to 
match exactly (I built them first).

I guess the configure script didn't pick up binutils assembler due to that.

Thanks for your help!
