I'm not sure if this is the same thing that happened to me... however recently 
I had an update to binutils that somehow made everything not compile anymore.  
After doing a:

# binutils-config -l
 [1] x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.16.1 

I saw that the binutils wasn't selected... (no * at the end).  So I did the 
following:

# binutils-config 1
* Switching to x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-2.16.1 ...

And it all worked again.

Hopefully that helps...
