Doh!  Yes, that was because I had been trying to use the 2.16 sources 
with a libiberty from various different gcc branches (4.0 or 3.4 or some 
such earlier gcc).  The libiberty libraries in these earlier gcc source 
trees do not have the unlink_if_ordinary() function, and rather than 
upgrade all of them, or change my symbolic link tree to use the 
libiberty in 2.16 binutils (which would cause its own problems), I chose 
to *locally* modify the 2.16 sources.  It is not my intention to check 
this change into the actual 2.16 branch, and if I had been paying more 
attention I would have edited it out of the patch before posting it.  Sorry.

Cheers
