Eelco Dolstra 7bbb1ad569 * Revert to binutils 2.21.1. Binutils 2.22 changes the default
handling of dynamic libraries from --copy-dt-needed-entries to
  --no-copy-dt-needed-entries, which breaks stuff (e.g. GCC, see
  http://hydra.nixos.org/build/1608471).  So stick with 2.21.1 for
  now.

The GNU Binutils are a collection of binary tools. The main

They also include the BFD (Binary File Descriptor) library,
