Whoops, I meant to send to list....To Bruce, the symlinks can be removed
for both books...at least they could about a month ago.

we're moving away all the .la file but in chap6.creating-files we

I believe that we no longer need these, and in fact the util-linux ones
were harmful later on in BLFS.

was working a month or so ago. Bruce had taken over for the lafile
commit and went in a different direction and these just slipped my mind
as a result. It's not really a problem anymore, because they are removed
at the end of LFS, but AFAIK, there is no purpose for them at this
point. The build issue that they were introduced to solve has been gone
for a long time (and I honestly don't think that the la files were ever
necessary). If you have time, a test run with jhalfs would be
appreciated. I'm moving forward with everything current right now, but
can probably do another build later today or tomorrow after this one
completes (currently in automake testsuite).
