The latest version of binutils is 2.10.  You can get it from ftp.gnu.org, 
sourceware.cygnus.com and mirrors.  No extra patches are needed for ARM GNU/
Linux.

To be honest I don't really remember what the status of the 2.95.2 patch is.  
I think there is a "2.95.3" patch in my directory on netwinder.org that might 
be slightly better.  That should also apply against 2.95.2 without too many 
problems.
