Hi,

I've recently built LFS on a 32 bit system (Version SVN-20160622.)
When I got to 6.17 and issued the configure command I noticed that I was getting /tools/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/6.1.0/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld as a result of "checking for ld..."

I was expecting the system to now be able to find and use the newly installed ld from chapter 6.13. Thinking I had done something wrong I retraced my steps but could see no issues with them.

So, I compared with this build log http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/build-logs/development/core2duo/build-logs-2012-04-22/079-gcc and this one also shows the same "oddity".

Eventually, I decided to run the gcc configure script prefixing it with LD=ld.

I was unable to understand why the configure script would prefer the ld in /tools and/or if this would be an important issue for the rest of the book.

Regards,
Ed Batalha
