Running the Ch4 prereqs I find the following deficiencies:

gawk >= 4.0.1:          GNU Awk 3.1.7
glibc >= 2.5.1:         (GNU libc) 2.12
grep >= 2.5.1a:         grep (GNU grep) 2.20
texinfo >= 4.7:         info (GNU texinfo) 4.13
xz >= 5.0.0:            xz (XZ Utils) 4.999.9beta

Since these are only needed to build the Stage1 throwaway code,
the one that looks like it may be a showstopper is the glibc.
Opinions?  Is it worth giving it a shot?  (Having to upgrade,
update, add packages to CentOS just to get back to the starting
line would be something of a PITA.)


Looks like you're misreading those package versions. Glibc, Grep, and Texinfo are all above the minimum versions given in the book.
