I just confirmed something that we need to probably put a note into the book.

If a glibc in chapter 5 is built without support for libidn, and you attempt to build it in chapter 6 with libibn you will get the symlink failure in the chapter 6 glibc. This has been mentioned on the lists before, but I have confirmed it.

Are we planning on putting libidn in the book? If not, I don't see why we need such a note, as the only time you should be building glibc is if you're building a new system. As per our usual stance on this sort of thing, items that fall outside the realm of the book should be hint material.
