It's built by my Firmware Linux project.  It's a minimal native development 
environment based on busybox and uClibc, which boots and runs under qemu.  
You can compile stuff natively in it for various targets (arm, powerpc, mips, 
etc).

Prebuilt binaries built against the uClibc and busybox nightly snapshots:
http://uclibc.org/~landley/fwl

Might be a busybox+uClibc issue, or a "busybox building under itself" issue.  
It seems to die rather than print out the help, possibly the "make compressed 
help" step is failing and the busybox build doesn't notice?  I'll poke at it 
tomorrow.

(This is probably why I was getting the segfaults with cmp while 
running ./configure on binutils.)
