     Run it in the build directory, but tell it which release you want to
     build.  It's used for a few different tools.
     
     make -f SRCDIR/src-release binutils.tar.bz2
     
When I do that I get the same result as before:

$ make -f /home/john/binutils/src/src-release binutils.tar.bz2
make: *** No rule to make target `README', needed by `binutils.tar.bz2'.  Stop.
