I think that we should require binutils version, as it makes a big
difference.  In fact, ideally the test_summary script would contain some
"smarts" to try to figure out if binutils is in use and, if so, what
version is in use.  The reason is that a number of tests succeed or fail
based on the particular binutils version in use.
