<para><userinput>tooldir=/usr:</userinput> Normally, the tooldir (the
directory where the executables from binutils end up in) is set to
$(exec_prefix)/$(target_alias) which expands into, for example,
/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu. Since we only build for our own system, we don't
need this target specific directory in /usr. That setup would be used
if the system was used to cross-compile (for example
compiling a package on the Intel machine that generates code that can be
executed on Apple PowerPC machines).</para>
<para><userinput>make tooldir=/usr install-info:</userinput> This will
install binutil's info pages.</para>
