Thanks, I'll give that a try.  Next stupid question; for a variety of
reasons, the Corporate I/T folks require that I stay stuck on Ubuntu
10.04.  Are there any incompatibility problems with using the most
recently released binutils-gold and gcc 4.4.3-4ubuntu5.1?  Basically,
can I just compile a new version of binutils, or do I need to upgrade
my entire compiler toolchain?

Thanks,
