grep '^FAIL:' $(find -name '*.log')

Finally, to install GNU Binutils into the build tree, run the following commands:

make tooldir=/usr install
rm -rfv /usr/lib64/lib{bfd,ctf,ctf-nobfd,gprofng,opcodes,sframe}.a /usr/share/doc/gprofng/
rm -rfv /usr/lib64/lib{bfd,ctf,ctf-nobfd,gprofng,opcodes,sframe}.la
