Unexpected? Please explain. /tools should either be in the output or
not. I don't know which, but a spurious occurence or lack of it sounds
bad.
Well, I should research it more, but I don't there's a problem with that
output. At that point, the ld we're using is the ld-new we made at the
end of binutils pass2. So, it was configured with --prefix=/tools and
--with-lib-path=/tools/lib but adjusted to include /usr/lib and /lib in
it search path at the end.
In the very next section, we build it fully for --prefix=/usr and get
ourselves the final ld which has the desired search paths as shown.
My point was that a user might be surprised to still see a reference to
'/tools' at that point, since we specifically specified its search path
to be /usr/lib:/lib earlier (apparently it's including the search path
from the configure results as well). Either we don't include it, or
probably better, we explain fully what's going on.
I still need to go over it a few more times before I understand some of
the intricacies of what's happening there.
