Isn't there a further explanation of the error: usually, gcc gives the
location of the macros used (in this case __GLIBC_PREREQ), so that one can see
what is generated and why it fails.

Then, usual questions are:
- Is the lfs user environment correctly set? "echo $LFS $LFS_TGT" should be
run often enough to check (or "env").
- Does the output of the version-check.sh script in "2.2- Host System
Requirements" match expectations (you may post the output to us if you are not
sure)
- Are you sure you entered the instructions as given? Of course there are
other ways to build LFS, but we cannot help on those, since we have not tried
them. I see you have at least deviated in the name of the build directory
(build-std). Not a big deal of course, if it is the only deviation.
- Did you erase the gcc-7.3.0 directory after gcc-pass1? This is what we
suppose in the instructions. It may lead to unexpected results if not (even
when changing the name of the build directory).

I don't remember hearing about this error, but maybe others on the list have.
Wait for them to wake up: they are in US or Australia... BTW, we can't find
your mistakes if you don't post what you've done ;-)
