What version of binutils are you using?

This package worked fine a few weeks ago, but recently binutils was given an upgrade and it is quite probable that that triggered the error.

i am using: 

sys-devel/binutils-2.14.90.0.1-r1

Seems the elfutils package doesn't like the new binutils,

will try to fix
