Strange, I don't think they should be there.

Okay, so you'll have to create a "binutils-win" (or change the current
binutils to something that reflects that it's native or part of the
toolchain - like gcc-gmp). Make sure it has a dependency on gcc and
--host=$(TARGET) --prefix='$(PREFIX)/$(TARGET)' configure options
(much like normal cross builds).

Have a look at gdb and it's log. It includes it's own copy of bfd and
should give you an idea of how to configure it for use on a windows
host.

Cheers,
