binutils/binutils: remove faulty patch

The added code should be conditinal to the target system
being !MIPS, but is based on the host system being !MIPS.

This is plain wrong, and had not been noticed until now
as I never used those binutils versions on MIPS.

     4 The following makes it possible to configure glibc-2.3.2 on Mac OS X,
     5 where the assembler but doesn't understand the --version flag.

     7 Fixes the symptom
     8 checking whether ld is GNU ld... no
     9 checking for /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as... /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as
    10 checking version of /usr/libexec/gcc/darwin/ppc/as...
