.._required_, yes, and this required dependency in your experimental
linux-tools-2.6.36 breaks my satisfaction when we wanna experiment 
with experimental binutils, compilers etc on experimental kernel etc
builds to help find real bugs. ;o)

..my suggestion is satisfy the dependency with "one of Sid's or
Experimental's" binutils, or even "one or 2 or 3 or more", and 
not the current "Sid Only Basta!!!".

.."if" my smoke tests crashes, I still get to keep the bits, 
so I can go "Oh Horror!!! Downgrade to Sid!!!". ;o)
