You needed to find binutils and install it correctly. I could have googled myself for it and given you a link from which you might learn nothing, or I could have pointed you towards a method for finding your own solutions. The latter costs less of my time, and possibly teaches you a skill that is useful. You might even have googled for "Mac OS" and "binutils" and found the best solution that way...

Yes, I found this before I submitted my query.

Would telling us this information have lead to you being more likely to get a useful answer and used less of everybody's time?

Of course things under OS X tend to be located in different places than GNU 
assumes.  I ran the GNU install of binutils, and it did not change the 
behavior, perhaps because whatever gets installed isn't going to the right 
place where OS X keeps it. -- Scott

This is a regular Mac problem. Check out fink and see if there is a binutils package suitable for it and hope that the Mac OS installation mechanism solves all your problems.

Otherwise, one solution would be to work out how to point GROMACS at the binutils that is newly installed, and not at the one that's presumably already there. This is a matter of tinkering with your PATH variable. It could be argued that this is inferior to a fink solution.
