 The current version checking script uses the following to find the version
 of binutils:

 {{{
 echo -n "Binutils: "; ld --version | head -n1 | cut -d" " -f3-4
 }}}

 This is not locale-safe, as the field numbers in the translation may not
 match those in the original English message. This has already biten jhalfs
 user (on findutils, not binutils).
