I'm running 2.15.  The latest is 2.17.  The changelog for 2.16 says this:

* Add a -g command line option to generate debug information in the target's
   preferred debug format.

I don't think U-Boot should require gas 2.16 or higher.  Is this going to be a requirement?  Updating our toolset is a real pain, and I'd rather fix the Makefile instead.
