Being unable to build LFS6.1 on my FC4 system because of the gcc4 problem, I installed a minimal ubuntu distribution.
When I tried building binutils, I ran into the problem of the nonexistence of "yyparse." I had to hunt around on the web a bit, and I finally found somebody who had the same problem and said it was solved by installing bison and flex. I installed these, and everything went fine. So, I think (as does the other person who had this problem and solved it by asking around in linuxquestions.org -- see http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?s=&threadid=255027) that there ought to be some kind of documentation of what development tools are required in order to build LFS.
