+The last public release of the binutils 2.8.x series is 2.8.1.0.23. 
+Binutils 2.8.1.0.25 to 2.9.1.0.2 are all very buggy; do not use them. 
+Binutils 2.9.1 (note the absence of a suffix) is all right, and binutils
+2.9.1.0.3 (and presumably later revisions) will probably work, too. 
+Stick with 2.8.1.0.23 to be safe.
