Okay but binutils is just a dependency of libgccjit.  I don't know
Windows but is usually up to the user to admin his system, so yes when
you upgrade libgccjit maybe a new binutils could be needed, but still
Emacs is independent.

Unless we are discussing distributing a bundle, but that's another
subject I think no?
