Thanks for the confirmation. Both 2.31 and master fail when building own 
gmp, mpc, mpfr, isl, zlib, flex,  bison and texinfo using gcc 5.2.0:

Using built-in specs.

With gcc 4.8.5, binutils-2.24, binutils-2.26, binutils-2.28, 
binutils-2.30, binutils-2.31 and master build. binutils-2.30, 
binutils-2.31 and master require texinfo. Probably some linking issue 
when using gcc 5.2.0
