FWIW, Jonathan's suggestion is the correct way to go if you want to adhere to the principles of the build method. As much as possible, you want all binaries in your final system built by the final toolchain. Moving file in chapter 6 before binutils, even if there is no binary difference between what is produced from the chapter 5 toolchain, goes against the principle of the build method. JH
