You may also put a note that there exists a launchpad ppa for ubuntu, 
then you don't need to compile the binutils yourself (which evidently 
can be a pain in the ...).

Btw. I got the compilation working on a Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit (within a 
VM), but since my main desktop still runs 10.04 I cannot use the ppa.

Kind regards,
