Do you run 'make check' for each package you're building?  Or is it that
coreutils test suite requires perl and you didn't have perl built yet?

Well, it would be nice if you could report the issue to LFS or to
bug-coreutils, after ensuring that it is indeed a bug in coreutils and
not a pilot error.

The error sounds like your compiler may be generating code that your
processor can't process.  Like if you built for i686 but then used the
code on an i486.
