I'm not the binutils release maintainer, so I can't really sign off on a 
release date, but give the history that sounds about right to me.  I get 
it's a headache to have to have a toolchain that supports the ISA, but 
if it was really that important it would have made one of the last two 
releases -- I very specifically remember talking to the folks at the 
RISC-V foundation about this the better part of a year ago, but they 
decided to play at politics instead of being constructive so now we have 
two messes to clean up.

I volunteered Patrick to send binutils patches for the T-Head cache 
control stuff (as I didn't have time to write it myself this weekend), 
it's only a dozen or so instructions and thus shouldn't take that long.  
At least that way we can get a rough consensus on how we're going to 
move forward with the toolchain support, which we really need before 
we're going to start depending on anything.

Sorry you got pulled into all this.
