I now think the copy-paste theory was wrong. I should not have expected CC to be set after running the configure command in 5.9.1. I was unfamiliar with the idea of passing environment vars to a single program on the command line. I have used shells for a long time and not learned that till now. So

Thanks. OK. I'll look at akh's suggstion in my next session. I already did a similar thing, actually. I think this was in 5.9 binutils pass 2. I set the environment variables - like 'export CC=$LFS_TGT-gcc' one at a time. Then I pasted the whole configure command into a file and bashed it. An

Even supposing the HTML looks innocent, I'm wondering if there are other ways for a multi-line selection to get corrupted. I experimented with the configure command in 7.4/5.9 Binutils. I was convinced that the method didn't work there in my situation. I'll repeat this later. On Wed, Nov 13,
