Do you use ccache, distcc or any other wrappers? If you do you may have to
disable it until this is all resolved and the wrappers have been remerged.

What is the output of:
# ls -L /usr/bin/as
That link is created by binutils-config. If it's broken switching the right
binutils profile once again may fix it (even if it was already chosen):
# binutils-config -l
[1] i686-pc-linux-gnu-2.16.1
[2] i686-pc-linux-gnu-2.17 *
# binutils-config 2
* Switching to i686-pc-linux-gnu-2.17 ...

# env-update
# source /etc/profile
