Speaking of upgrading the compiler, what are the chances of upgrading the
binutils to 2.9.1 (at least for the ELF bits) in -current?

I mention this, because as I was trying to compile koffice, I could
reliably segfault as (2.8.1 from -current), which would in turn nicely
knonk out egcs (and the rest of the build process).  Using the version of
gas that came with binutils 2.9.1 (configured for an
i586-unknown-freebsdelf system) seems to have solved my problems.

Also, the building of gas from the -current sources seems to ignore CFLAGS
(and CXXFLAGS), but not CC/CXX.  Should I open a pr for these and other
minor stuff like this?
