Yes, the creation of the temporally tools must be different on both sets of 
books.

I see a common sources, but two differen projects with their own rendering 
books pulled from that sources: multi-arch books in LFS and cross-build books 
in Cross-LFS.

If you are rendering/validating all book each time that you made a little 
change in the sources, yes, the process is very long.

But if the change you made only affect some archs, you can validate/render 
only that books (for example, mips ands mips64) adding "ARCH=mips mips64" to 
the make command.
