Possibly I should just put all the manual page symlinks into the doc rpm,
though I'd prefer them only to be installed if the things they're describing
are present.

There are manual pages for ld.  Do you mean ld.bfd?  If so, there is no manual
page specifically for that.  I'm not entirely sure what the ld.bfd is for.

> We'll have to check what the rules are for non-standard directories in /usr,

I wonder if that's going to happen if I let it create, say,
/usr/xtensa-linux-gnu/ instead of /usr/cross/xtensa-linux-gnu/.  I wonder if
these things should be in /usr/libexec.

> and the cross-directory hard links.

I missed that.  Interesting...  I wonder if the core binutils package does this
too.  Even though it's marked as a cross-dir hardlink, it isn't installed so
(even though it could be).

> Also:

That's a comment borrowed from the original binutils.spec.  I should probably
keep it as long as that does.

I'm not sure whether I need this.  I should find an IA64 box and try it.

I should get rid of those.

> cross-binutils.src: W: patch-not-applied Patch3:

That's one of the original binutils.spec patches and is related to the
macro-in-comment warnings of lines 138-142.  I wonder if I should just apply
all of the original binutils.spec patches as applied by that?
