Thanks for the info Brian. I ran ./configure successfully in the extracted binutils-20050610-1 directory. When I ran make I ran into the following error:

gcc -W -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Werror -g -O2 -o ar.exe arparse.o arlex.o ar.o not-ranlib.o arsup.o rename.o binemul.o emul_vanilla.o bucomm.o version.o filemode.o ../bfd/.libs/libbfd.a ../libiberty/libiberty.a ./../intl/libintl.a

I'm not quite sure what the problem is. I have bison, flex and byacc loaded.

Sorry for being a naive pest,
