I can not confirm this.  I just happen to build everything from scratch
and have run a 'create-gcckit' successfully.

This confuses me.  Yes, c++filt is an executable build from sources in
binutils.  But why say "needs to be shipped there" ? We don't have a
separate binutils kit.  And as this tool is only useful for C++ users,
it is currently in the C++ compiler kit.

After a 'build-it riscos' you should have these "*filt*" files in
your builddir-riscos directory:

--8<--
./binutils/doc/cxxfilt.man
./binutils/doc/c++filt.1
./binutils/doc/binutils.html/c_002b_002bfilt.html
./binutils/cxxfilt.o
./binutils/cxxfilt
./arm-unknown-riscos/fpu/libstdc++-v3/include/ext/pb_assoc/detail/typelist/typelist_filter.hpp
./arm-unknown-riscos/libstdc++-v3/include/ext/pb_assoc/detail/typelist/typelist_filter.hpp
--8<--

And in the 'release-area' directory:

--8<--
./full/!GCC/include/c++/4.1.1/ext/pb_assoc/detail/typelist/typelist_filter.hpp
./full/!GCC/man/man1/c++filt.1
./full/!GCC/bin/c++filt
--8<--

Mind the ".1" extension as I don't see this mentioned in your mail.

After running 'create-gcckit' you should have the following "*filt*" files
in 'release-area':

--8<--
./full/!GCC/include/c++/4.1.1/ext/pb_assoc/detail/typelist/typelist_filter.hpp
./full/!GCC/man/man1/c++filt.1
./full/!GCC/bin/c++filt,e1f
./full/!GCC/docs/binutils/c_002b_002bfilt.html
--8<--

Hope this helps,
John.
