mips-nec-sysv4.2MP: unrecognized option -Kopt=1

hi

i tried to compile a crosscompiler (gcc 2.95.[23]) for a nec ews 4800
(target: mips-nec-sysv4.2MP), but i got some errors. so i tried to compile
a native compiler on the ews first. The gcc compiled and runs fine, but
it use the native assembler and linker provided by the nec unix.

But i want to use the gnu ld / as. So i compile the binutils 2.11.2
on the target with the new built gcc. The configure runs without errors.
The make runs until this error:
/user/bminks/test/bin/gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I/user/bminks/crossgcc/src/binutils-2.11.2/bfd -I. -D_GNU_SOURCE -I. -I/user/bminks/crossgcc/src/binutils-2.11.2/bfd -I/user/bminks/crossgcc/src/binutils-2.11.2/bfd/../include -I/user/bminks/crossgcc/src/binutils-2.11.2/bfd/../intl -I../intl -W -Wall -O2 -c archive.c -o archive.o
/user/bminks/test/mips-nec-sysv4.2MP/bin/as: unrecognized option `-Kopt=1'
gmake[3]: *** [archive.lo] Error 1
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/net/ss-holiday/uvol1/home1/bminks/target/build/binutils/bfd'

it seems, the new as do not know the option -Kopt=1. i searched the web for
this problem / for a patch and found an old patch for binutils 2.8.1,
but i dont find a patch for 2.11.2.

does anybody know, if exists a patch for the nec ews and binutils 2.1[01].x?
or does anybody know something about this problem?

thx
