>Description:
binutils fails to build on a system with the `elfutils` package installed because HAVE_LIBDEBUGINFOD gets set but the required header file (elfutils/debuginfod.h) is not in the NetBSD source tree.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install elfutils on host system (in my case, FreeBSD-15).
Attempt to build tools.
>Fix:
Adding --with-debuginfod=no to tools/binutils/Makefile allows the tools build to complete correctly:
diff --git a/tools/binutils/Makefile b/tools/binutils/Makefile
index c56085182bd3..b9342d8e0e09 100644
