This makes oprofile link statically against libbfd, again, by merging in the Debian NMU that did the same thing:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=537744
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=573905
This will make future rebuilds against new binutils unnecessary for good.

I built this in my PPA <https://launchpad.net/~anders-
kaseorg/+archive/ppa>, checked that it no longer depends a specific
version of binutils, and successfully tested it with the instructions at
<http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/OProfile>.
