In the Chapter 5 build of glibc, three configuration tests are

relies on a working linker."
Out of curiosity, I ran ldd on both the static and the dynamic
linkers from the first pass binutils build. They are linked to the
host glibc (and a few other host libraries as well). Why would they
not work?
I usually find the explanations in the book very enlightening but
this one puzzles me.
IIRC it really depends on the host. Some libraries and programs are not
yet built, but the host's glibc would be used in this case.
