  Thanks for the links.  In the meantime, and subject to a complete build
 actually working, I'd like to see 6.10 in the book.  How about adding the
 following version of hostname ''at the end of procps, which is where
 sysctl is installed'' ?

 {{{
 cat >/bin/hostname <<EOF
 #!/bin/sh
 if [ \$# -gt 0 ]; then
         sysctl -q -w kernel.hostname=\$1
 else
         uname -n
 fi
 EOF
 chmod -m 0755 /bin/hostname
 }}}

  I need to do more testing on the coreutils build before I start a full
 system build, I had some odd errors yesterday (e.g. invocation of
 autotools, which failed at the lzma identifier), and it appeared to not
 install arch even though I had not mentioned it in my override of
 --enable-no-install-program.
