Let me add that getting a 'current' BLFS is almost impossible.  There are about 
300 packages in BLFS.  It each only changed once a year (an many change much 
more frequently than that) it would be almost a package a day.  It's a moving 
target and with lots of help we could get close, but in the long run, whatever 
we produce is only a snapshot.
