It doesn't have a compiler but it does have a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T), a browser, and even wget; so no, you can't build software on it but you can install binaries of your choice as root. I have an EeePC for note-taking at events, and some web surfing and email, so I haven't done much with it. Maybe you could create another partition and install LFS on that partition from a USB flash drive. Then you could adjust grub accordingly -- just an idea. However, storage space may be a problem.
