xgcc does not find gcc-4.6.0-go/./binutils/ar (because it is gcc-4.6.0-go/./binutils/binutils/ar)

You have to put all the top-level binutils directories in the gcc source
tree.  That is, you shouldn't see just a binutils directory there; you
should see bfd, opcodes, gas, ld, binutils, etc.  This does not work
reliably when mixing releases, because directories like include and
libiberty are shared between gcc and binutils.  It only works reliably
when working with the development sources.
