Why not look through the source for the handling of the tools which already end up in that directory? - Chris Stratton

Try this 

include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := 123.bin
LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(TARGET_OUT)/xbin
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := 123.bin
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := EXECUTABLE
include $(BUILD_PREBUILT)

don't use

LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := OPTIONAL_EXECUTABLES
LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(TARGET_OUT)/xbin

but just

LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := OPTIONAL_EXECUTABLES

which is formally better. See core/envsetup.mk

You should try this

include $(CLEAR_VARS)
LOCAL_MODULE := 123.bin
LOCAL_MODULE_PATH := $(PRODUCT_OUT)/system/xbin   ---> INFO : Just mention the path where you want your app, xml, exec etc
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := 123.bin
LOCAL_MODULE_CLASS := EXECUTABLE
include $(BUILD_PREBUILT)
