Seems to be "gcc-4.1.1" though...

The binutils-2.14.90.0.4 can really be "too old" to be used with gcc-4.1.1.

Maybe, I think giving at least your GCC configure command could help in 
solving the problem...

The current binutils version for Linux is "2.17.50.0.2" at:

    ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/devel/binutils

and it is assumed that you updated to this "current" version or at least 
to the last "2.16.91" one.
Anyway your "updated" is a little fuzzy, maybe it means a "2.15.94" one 
or something....
