Hi Daniel,

  I like the patch in principle, but I feel that there is a problem with it -
we cannot rely upon building the binutils only in a glibc environment.  They
are also built with other C libraries.  I cannot think of a clean way to test
for the presence of system header files however, so maybe AH_VERBATIM macros
could be made conditional somehow ?  Perhaps on the use of the
--enable-maintainer-mode config option ?

  You also mention that config.h is included twice sometimes.  Does your patch
catch this ?  I am not aware of any config.h redefinition warnings when
building the binutils locally, so can you tell me more about where and when
this happens ?

Cheers
  Nick
