Hi all,

Due to a license issue, the GNU mirrors no longer contain binutils-2.21.tar.bz2 (http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2011-08/msg00198.html). Therefore, building stdenv fails in a non-standard nix store location or if substitutors are not used. I can think of two ways to fix this: Upload the tarball somewhere and update the expression in trunk, or start the process of merging stdenv-updates (which has already updated to 2.21.1a) into trunk. I'd prefer the latter, especially since hosting binutils-2.21.tar.bz2 may violate licenses subtly. Thoughts?

Cheers,
Shea
