The updated binutils.README is available here:

http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/V1.1/dll-stuff/binutils.README-new

it reflects the recent changes in the binutils CVS, as well as the 
recently posted "make enable-auto-import default" patch.  (I've attached 
that again, for convenience).

When you get a chance, Chris, give it a go.
