Unless I am misreading the document, I did not
see this new requirement in gcc/doc/invoke.texi.
This information would be highly useful to include
in gcc/doc/invoke.texi, especially since more
people will hit this as they try out gcc 3.1.
What platforms does this new requirement cover?
Is it possible to use some configury magic
to determine the version of binutils, and issue
an appropriate warning if an outdated version
is detected?
