The updated binutils.README is available here:
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/V1.1/dll-stuff/binutils.README-new
it reflects the recent changes in the binutils CVS, as well as the
recently posted "make enable-auto-import default" patch. (I've attached
that again, for convenience).
When you get a chance, Chris, give it a go.
