I have been trying to figure out what my problem is here. I ran it

C has a little wierd syntax for an old FORTRAN programmer, but I've read
a lot of code I didn't fully understand. This kmod array sort code
isn't particularly confusing, doesn't do much more than call qsort.
I figured, correctly, that comes from glibc. I pulled out the glibc
tarball, tried to compile and run the tst-qsort2.c program. It didn't
blow up (that was good), just returned silently. I think that's what
it's supposed to do. First time I've tried to compile and run a C
program, and I can't be sure I did it right or had the right supporting
environment for the test. I don't think I can just run "make check" and
have it run against the installed code. But it seems like glibc COULD
be the problem.
Backing up ~35 packages and doing glibc again IS possible, but does it
make sense it would be just qsort that didn't install correctly?
No, that does not make sense. I would delete all the directories in
/mnt/lfs except sources and /tools and start Chapter 6 over. Be sure to
unmount any virtual file systems mounted to /mnt/lfs.
