I have exact same errors.  I made no deviations that I know of.

              Sure thing.  Here are the stats.  CLFS version 1.0.0
              
            
              Host OS Ubuntu 7.10
              
            
              Host is X86_64 multilib and target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
              
            
              
                The value of the $CLFS_HOST=x86_64-cross-linux-gnu, 
CLFS_TARGET=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, BUILD32="",
                and BUILD64=-m64 environment variables.
              
            
              Packages I noticed problems in:  shadow, less, and man

              
            
              Here are the behaviors I found
 Man, the repeated problem is a quick display of one screen and the following 
error.  
"Error executing formatting or display command.

System command )cd /usr/share/man && (echo ".pl 1100i"; /bin/cat 
'/usr/share/man /man1/groff.1'; echo ".\\\""; 

echo ".pl \n(nlu+10") | /usr/bin/gtbl | /usr/bin/nroff -Tlatin1 -mandoc | 
/bin/less -isR)

exited with status 256." 

less will only output a single screen the same as less --help.  However less 
--help | more will let me to view all the output. 

passwd will not accept input.  running passwd at the prompt with any arguments 
shows: 
Changing password for root Enter the new password (minimum of 5, maximum of 127 
characters) 
Please use a combination of upper and lower case letters and numbers. 
Bad password:  too short. 
Warning:  weak password (enter it again to use it anyway) 
Password changed
              I only deviated from the book in the following sections.CFLAGS 
and CXXFLAGS are set to "-march=nocona -m64 -pipe -O2 -finline-functions -fPIC 
-fstack-protector-all"
BUILD64 is not use.  I also used the latest kernel.  CFLAGS was set to 
"-march=nocona -m64 -pipe -O2 -finline-functions -fPIC" during the glibc final 
install.
