Lluís Batlle i Rossell aedebd300f Fixing the binutils expression and patches, so they work fine.
I also added some comments on why these patches.

The GNU Binutils are a collection of binary tools. The main
ones are `ld' (the GNU linker) and `as' (the GNU assembler).
They also include the BFD (Binary File Descriptor) library,
`gprof', `nm', `strip', etc.
