CVS ?  Binutils (and gdb) are now using git:

Huh! I knew this, but not being a daily CVS user, I though the commands in the documentation would get a binutils version that was somehow tailored for GCC's needs. Anyway, here is what I just tried instead:

    # Get newlib and the simulator
    cvs -d :pserver:anon...@sourceware.org:/cvs/src co newlib sim
    # Get binutils
    git clone git://sourceware.org/git/binutils-gdb.git

    # Create the combined tree
    rm -rf combined
    mkdir combined
    cd src          && find . -print | cpio -pdlm  ../combined && cd ..
    cd binutils-gdb && find . -print | cpio -pdlmu ../combined && cd ..
    cd gcc          && find . -print | cpio -pdlmu ../combined && cd ..

    # Same build/test procedure...

It seems to work fine! (I'm running tests, now...) So thank you very much, Tristan. I'm going to submit a website patch to update the documentation according to this.
