This is a patch for binutils to produce OS4 binutils.

To rebuild the source, get
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/binutils/binutils-2.14.tar.gz. Unpack the source,
change to the directory of the source code, and apply the diff (unpack it
first):

> tar xvzf binutils-2.14.tar.gz
> cd binutils-2.14
> bzcat <path/to/patch/>binutils-2.14.patch.bz2 | patch -p 1

To build the binutils, create a new directory (outside binutils source tree),
and configure it:

> mkdir binutils-build
> cd binutils-build
> ../binutils-2.14/configure --host=<desired host system> --target=ppc-amigaos
--build=<your build system> --prefix=<path/to/install/to>
> make
> make install

For more information about configuring and building binutils, see the binutils
documentation

Note: You need to build these before building the compiler. The compiler build
process needs binutils first.
