I originally designed ksymoops that way but there are so many different
methods of naming the binutils for cross compile environments that I
gave up.  Using the path runs the risk of picking random versions of nm
and objdump and still not being correct.  Anybody running cross compile
has to specify parameters for System.map, ksyms and objects, so adding
paths for binutils is a small change and is the only way to guarantee
that the correct versions are used.
