it seems there's still some problem (on GNU/FreeBSD, haven't tested
native FreeBSD). It happens with the CVS snapshot i took after you
fixed the GNU/FreeBSD test case in gas.

I built binutils like this:

  ./configure --enable-shared
  make
  sudo make prefix=/tmp/usr/ install

after some testing i found that only when this exact combination is used
(if i pass --prefix=/tmp/usr to configure, and not to make, then it works),
and only on GNU/FreeBSD, the install target fails with:

/bin/sh ./libtool  --mode=install /bin/sh /home/rmh/tmp/binutils/binutils-cvs20030530/install-sh -c libopcodes.la /tmp/usr//lib/libopcodes.la
libtool: install: warning: relinking `libopcodes.la'

libtool: install: error: relink `libopcodes.la' with the above command before installing it

maybe a missing -L flag?

I'm attaching you the full build log in case you want to look.
