False alarm, sorry. I'd thought that that was because of patches I'd used, but when I built my *LFS again from the beginning, these tests mysteriously succeed. Only three failures: annexc, tst-cancel1, tst-cancel24. > Again, please note that LFS > doesn't currently support 64-bit architectures.

Nevertheless, now I've finished building a __pure__ 64-bit *LFS without use of the cross compilation, with slight deviations from the book. All the libraries now are 64-bit and they're placed in {,/usr}/lib instead of {,/usr}/lib64. In order to achieve this, six different patches (four patches for gcc, two for glibc) were written and applied at a different stages of a build process.
