binutils-9.11

[Peter Breitenlohner]

Hi,

In order to have 'make DESTDIR=<somewhere> install' work,
I had to apply the attached patch to binutils-9.11

The problem is that many SUBDIRs have a Makefile.am and use automake,
whereas the toplevel directory and some other SUBDIRs don't. Thus you get a
DESTDIR-prefix for many install-targets, but not everywhere. Moreover some
Makefile.am's don't do it right.

The patch fixes these problems. (In some places the patch changes
Makefile.am as well as the Makefile.in generated from it, the latter is of
course superfluous.) I think being able to do 'make DESTDIR=<somewhere>
install' is very helpful (in particular since the output from 'make -n
install' is extremely hard to read).

I understand, that it may be somewhat difficult to integrate these changes
into a complete source tree containing everything from apache to z???, but I
think this has eventually to be done in any case.
