Hallo,
I rebuilt LFS from SVN with kernel 4.15 gcc 7.3 on i686.
# head -n7 /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 15
model : 4
model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz
stepping : 9
microcode : 0x3
PTI offers mitigation against Meltdown, retpoline against Spectre v2.
Basic LFS compiles fine with book settings, apart from grub where a
minimal change was required in the final build of binutils 2.30. I admit
I simply hacked the script 082-binutils in lfs-commands to achieve that.
configure needs the following switch on 32 bit systems:
--enable-64-bit-bfd
Thanks for the report. The new glibc was released yesterday so I will be
making a full build shortly. I will add a note to Chapter 6 binutils to
add --enable-64-bit-bfd on 32-bit systems when I update the book. I
suspect it is automatically set (or the equivalent) on 64-bit systems.
I'll look for that.

The build fails if the "target" switch is used (as was suggested here on
the list).
I then compiled some minimal tools I always like to have - openssl,
openssh, libtirpc, lsof, rpcbind, nfs-utils, cpio. I was able to compile
that with only some minor patches on the way due to gcc 7.3 abiding to
the latest C and C++ standards (things like stdint.h, sysmacros.h etc.).
As it is i686 does not contain PTI yet.
