Since BinUtils is the first package to be build, there should be some
additional info on directories of $LFS/sources, like:

     binutils-2.24
     binutils-build

or some notes that say:

    If you encounter error "Permission denied", be sure that you are inside
binutils-2.24 directory.

This is just a suggestion to help newbies like me.
