We already have, and in some situations, binutils depends on it: ifeq ($(BINUTILS_FROM_GIT),y) BINUTILS_DEPENDENCIES += host-texinfo host-flex host-bison HOST_BINUTILS_DEPENDENCIES += host-texinfo host-flex host-bison endif I believe what's happening is that the patches added by Max are making certain files newer, which triggers a rebuild of the documentation in binutils, which normally doesn't happen with release tarballs.
