Not quite, and the difference can be seen when you look at the link *outside* the chroot environment (i.e where the filesystem is mounted to /mnt/lfs). The /lib directory becomes /mnt/lfs/lib, and so the first link now expands to /mnt/lfs/usr/bin/cpp. However, the second link is an absolute path, and so still points to /usr/bin/cpp - not to the file it was intended to point at.
