Ok, well the copy'n'paste you did doesn't detail any errors
Do
make -j1
Why -j1 ?
If you set MAKEFLAGS="-j<n>" to take advantage of multiple cores the error
can be hidden higher up in the compiler spew,,, -j1 will make it easier to
read
As binutils is the first package it may well be worth going back and
starting again, it will be something simple, probably a missing package on
your host system
