Subject: Add native GNU Binutils build notes.

NB: The cross-compiling EGLIBC configuration is wrong -- the Linux
compatibility version (the value of '--enable-kernel') is too high for
the host system.  As a result, the configure script of Binutils fails
because any binaries built against this temporary EGLIBC can't be run on
the host system.
