I don't think the documentation is out of date.  My last running
system is from 15th June, although I built as far as the end of
chroot from the 26th June book to look at a possible perl issue.
And both were sysv.

This is an unusual problem.  I think your version of m4 in /tools is
linked to *host* libc and ld-linux.  By copying the prog into chroot
it can now find libc and the loader,

I suggest that, outside chroot, you run ldd on /tools/bin/m4.  If I
am right, also check the links for an executable (prog, or lib, or
libexec) from every other package in chapter 5 after pass 2 gcc.

Some of the tools progs appear to be ok, maybe only m4 was wrong,
perhaps you built in stages and resumed without one of the envvars
set correctly, e.g. PATH ?
