sed -i.bak \ -e 's,\./fixinc\.sh,-c true,' \ -e '/^LIBGCC2_DEBUG/d' gcc/Makefile.in
Then again, the above sed looks more like the fixincludes patch as I think it prevents the fixincludes process from running.
Greg chose to replace the simple patches like the fixincludes patch with seds.
# Man-Pages #---------------
rm -fv man1/{chgrp,chmod,chown,cp,dd,df,diff,dir,dircolors,du}.1 rm -fv man1/{install,ln,ls,mkdir,mkfifo,mknod,mv,rm,rmdir,touch,vdir}.1 rm -fv man3/getspnam.3 man5/passwd.5
Interesting approach. Rather than install the man-pages and have them subsequently overwritten, simply prevent the man-pages versions from ever being installed. I personally disagree, and use the man-pages versions of the documents rather than the man pages provided by the specific packages, but seeing as the book does the opposite this is something the editors may want to consider even though it doesn't do much to change the end result.

# Glibc-2.3.X #------------

CFLAGS="-O3 -march=i686 -pipe" ../glibc-2.3.*/configure \
There is likely a reason that Greg decides to use different CFLAGS for glibc then for all the other packages. We need an explanation for this if we do it in the book. Of course, the book has been advocating the build of glibc without CFLAGS for a while now, which further begs an explanation. I personally think it's still a throwback from when linuxthreads would bomb if you set CFLAGS. I personally have built glibc many times with "-O2 -march=pentium4 -mmmx -msse -msse2 -mfpmath=sse -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe" without issues. The -mfpmath=sse creates issues with the math tests, but it hasn't come back to bite me yet.

make -k check || : sed -i.bak '/^INFO/s/standards.info //' etc/Makefile
Is the autoconf version of standards.info better than the binutils version?
