Correction. Will compile with patches from here:

  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=299671

But doesn't pass test suite:

  # of expected passes    28
  # of unexpected failures  20

Test logs show:

Executing /root/binutils-2.15/gas/testsuite/lib/run ../as-new  --32 -al /root/binutils-2.15/gas/testsuite/gas/i386/float.s >&dump.out
regexp_diff match failure
regexp "^.*: Assembler messages:$"
line   "Assembler messages:"
regexp_diff match failure
regexp "^.*:3: Warning:.*faddp.*$"
line   "FATAL: can't create a.out: Invalid bfd target"
extra regexps in /root/binutils-2.15/gas/testsuite/gas/i386/float.l starting with "^.*:14: Warning:.*fsubp.*$"
EOF from dump.out
FAIL: i386 float

I have no idea why this happens.
