The bld directory was created alongside the binutils source directory, 
it's just that the source was unzipped into a folder also called 
binutils-2.23.1. Sorry for the confusion there. Just in case I 
re-extracted the source directory to my C: root, created bld alongside 
it also in the root and tried configuring and making again with the same 
make result.
