Yes.

AFAICT, arm-elf-gcc will never call "arm-elf-as" (which is what
I was trying to get it to do).  It will always call "as".  The
directories in which it will look for "as" are (as Jonathan
Larmour) displayed when you do "arm-elf-gcc -print-search-dirs".

Putting an "as" in one of those directories makes things work.

For some reason, I had convinced myself that at some point in
history I had gotten arm-elf-gcc to call arm-elf-as and
therefore only needed the binutils programs installed in one
place instead of two.  That is apparently wrong -- you need
binutils binaries installed in two places: in my case:

  /usr/local/bin/arm-elf-as
  /usr/local/arm-elf-bin/as
