Would these be more appropriate in binutils?

I don't think so, given that we don't need any piece of regular
binutils. There's no meaningful way to build libbfd. It would be strange
to build binutils and have everything that's normally part of it
disabled at configure time.
Fair enough, but I'm having trouble seeing these in GCC. Makes me wonder if they ought to be a package unto themselves, nvptxtools or somesuch.

Note that as a separate package, you don't have to remove the GNU extensions :-)
