I compiled LFS 5.0 on a 386/20 a few years ago ;-) Some might say that's masochistic but it was fun! > Are you really certain about CFLAGS when you write this has > nothing to do? > > Beware not to set CFLAGS on chap5 > It really depend how you set CFLAGS, if you export CFLAGS > or use it in each > command line. Thanks for the advice. Yes, I am definitely not using any optimization. To be very sure I scrapped the build and started over after double checking that neither CFLAGS or CXXFLAGS were set, before I posted here. I'm building from SVN-20110210 and following it to the letter. > > I am building (not exactly lfs-book) on older host > centos-5.5 based > (bash-3.2.25, gcc-4.1.2, glibc-2.5) than yours and I doubt > the reason you > put in front is the right.

It's just coincidence that this PC has a (relatively) recent LFS build (about 18 months old). I have the wrong idea here, but I'm a firm believer that LFS should be able to build itself successfully, even from an old build, which I think normally it succeeds at doing.
