I think the following commands should be added to the book.
5.4:

10.5
cp -av include/asm-generic /usr/include/

BTW, the copy commands are not consistent. In 5.4 it uses cp -Rv, but in 10.5 it uses cp -av.

Don't really know anything about whether asm-generic should be copied, but the reason the cp commands have different options is because the "-a" option preserves permissions and timestamps, which are not important on the temp-system. On the other hand, this might actually be irrelevant since there is a find command run immediately after the headers installation that changes the permissions and ownership anyway...

Without copying the asm-generic, the glibc build will fail.

As with LLH, asm-generic is incorporated into each architecture directory 
(asm-i386, asm-x86_64.,,etc).
That's the difference.
