Alan,

Actually, building gcc second seems to result in gcc cleaning out
the binutils content from the install directory!

Does anybody out there know how I'd go about debugging the
linker myself? I ask this because the one who tried to help
can't seem to duplicate the problem on their machine...

Gary

It is better to build and install binutils first, so that the gcc
configure sees an up-to-date assembler and linker.  New gcc features
might not be enabled otherwise.
