Hi again,
Here's some results from my ICA/Farce run of yesterday. They show
that the system will rebuild itself with the exception of a couple
things that probably won't be fixed by me. (stdc++ .la and gch
differences) These exist whether I use the LFS or DIY toolchain.

Nice work, Dan. I'm slightly disappointed that the .la files still
differ, but such is life. Now that I've at last completed my tax
calculations (whaddya mean, at last minute - it isn't due until
Tuesday!) I can take another look at ICA.
On the non-alphabetic book, with utf8, I never managed to track down
why updating readline in place was leaving the symlinks pointing to
.old. FWIW clfs (ppc) was ok for that, so it must have been a problem
specific to the non-alphabetic build (and the clfs patches for readline
and bash didn't fix it).
On clfs I was also seeing a difference in vim on the first build,
tentatively blamed on the absence of 'man', which means there is no
option to specify section numbers to man - this might affect vim's 'Man'
plugin, but vim's 'K' command works fine regardless.
Of course, that would probably be specific to clfs, and in any case
vim's 'Man' plugin is almost unuable on all of my boxes, at least in
xterms - the pages have a sufficient amount of gibberish, probably for
bold or italic characters, to make them confusing, e.g. for :Man 3
mktemp (title has wrapped)
MKTEMP(3) Linux Programmer's Manual
MKTEMP(3)

mktemp - make a unique temporary file name
1mSYNOPSIS0m
1m#include <stdlib.h>0m
I haven't been running the testsuites, but I'm doing that now to make
sure that their dependencies are met.
Good man! As has already been seen with perl and db, and I think a
locale for coreutils tests, ICA analysis is different from the normal
testing, and doesn't replace it.
