Hm. I've used LFS to build my system. The "5.2. Toolchain Technical Notes"
gives introductory description of the differences. The rest of stuff
like '/lib64' instead of '/lib' came from tips.
Indeed, what that chapter says about 64 bit processors, is not much.
AFAIK CLFS shall be used if the host system is 32 bit and target system is 64
bit, because that is not a native build.
But, CLFS says:
The one "flaw" in LFS is that it has always been based on an x86 class
processor.
[....] the x86-only LFS is no longer ideal.
So, what is true?
