Bug Description

Installing the cross- build-deps for binutils currently fails.
Extract from http://people.linaro.org/~wookey/buildd/quantal/sbuild-ma/binutils_2.22.90.20120816-2ubuntu1-qunatal-ma-cross-armhf-20120823-031006.5184.log

apt-get -aarmhf build-dep binutils

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 gettext:armhf : Depends: gettext-base:armhf but it is not going to be installed
 quilt : Depends: gettext but it is not going to be installed
E: Build-dependencies for binutils could not be satisfied.
Failed to get cross build-deps

This needs a trivial fix:
append ':any' to the gettext build-dependency

This bug was fixed in the package binutils - 2.22.90.20120907-1ubuntu1

---------------
binutils (2.22.90.20120907-1ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low

  * Build-depend on gettext:any to fix the cross build. LP: #1043442.
    Work around until libgettext is split out of gettext (see #683751).

binutils (2.22.90.20120907-1) experimental; urgency=low

  * New upstream snapshot (taken from the 2.23 branch).
  * Don't build anymore with -marm on armhf.
  * Work around `install' limitation not able to pass parameters
    to the strip command. Closes: #686183.
  * Generate md5sums file. Closes: #684079.
