Is 120Mb during chapter 6 worth the effort? In my testing, the high
water mark is building glibc in Chapter 6. After that, there is lots of
room. My testing, admittedly some time ago, showed a max of about 1.1G
of total space used. We put in 1.3G as a minimum with a little cushion.

I cut this down to the essence...
Interesting. Is there anything at all in /tools/share that is needed in
Chapter 6?
