For glibc, the _safe_ advice is always to rebuild the whole system :)
I can personally attest to that, having made the fatal error of doing a 'make install' from the wrong xterm and overwriting the host's libc. Not even 'ls' coped with that tiny mistake!
Binutils and gcc are probably straightforward, but you never know.
I have upgraded binutils and gcc several times, though I only ever upgrade gcc in the same patch version (e.g. 3.4.0->3.4.1) as libstdc++ can cause problems otherwise.
