There are builds of the command-line tools for Linux (and Windows) on 
Atmel's website - as far as I know, these are kept current with AVR 
Studio.  (I'm sure Erik will correct me if I'm wrong there.)  While 
that's not quite the same as getting the upstream versions in sync, you 
can at least synchronise your build system.
