If you want to fix this long term, why not create the files and
add them to binutils.  Start by creating empty versions of all
the missing files.  Then see what types/structures/defines the
code really needs.  Add them to your empty files until it compiles.
Don't add anything that is not needed.

Someone else will have to speak about keeping the new files
clean enough to make them suitable for inclusion in binutils.
