second

Using obdump -x shows that libfl.so (from flex) is added in the
dependencies for the second build. This is to be expected since flex is
not built in chapter 5, and built much after binutils in chapter 6.
'''Solution''' build flex in chapter 5 and link /usr/lib/libfl.so* to
/tools/lib in "Creating Essential Files and Symlinks".
'''Possible side effect''' Several other packages may benefit from having
flex executable to generate some files. But it does not show up in ICA.
'''Question''' it is not clear how the fl library is used in ar and
ranlib. So is it useful?
