ugh even if I did have problems with the menu list

any thought. Perhaps I should take a glance there again as I was ( past

both fail in a similar way.

It may be reasonable to include a line or two for RISC (PPC/ARM etc) based
people that may get different output from compiling that dummy.c code.

Why ?
I don't think this is a support issue at all. More of a "could LFS be more
generic and open to other architectures" sort of thing.
Since leaping
is really about, to me, is
learning and seeing each piece along the journey.

I have taken a run at this twice and am not entirely sure if the situation
is acceptable or not.
I build glibc as detailed and then run "make -k check " with output being
dumped via tee into glibc-check-log.
The make -k check ends with these lines :

The problem is the FreeScale 52XX processor target and I'm looking
into it to see what the issue may be and I'll let you know what I
find.
