Actually, I needed to back track to the version specified in the latest
stable LFS guide.  I was building binutils-2.16.91.0.4 but the LFS said
to use binutils-2.15.94.0.2.2.  Sure enough, that did the trick.  

Migrating from one version of the binutils/gcc/glibc to another is a bit
tricky, apparently.  There is probably a 1-to-1 correspondence, so if
you move up a version in one you may need to move up in the others.  But
that's just a guess on my part.

Anyway, using the specified versions in the LFS worked.  On to the rest
of the build...

Thanks.
