Little OT.
Why is System.map optional but recommended?
What is it for?
And what should it be named? I see that instructions
in CLFS
http://cross-lfs.org/view/1.0.0/x86_64/bootable/kernel.html
that it is copied with a name that contains the version.

Just a report.
I'm doing a CLFS build with a Feisty 64bit and it is going well.
I don't remember all of the apt-get install that I've done since
the first installation of my Ubuntu, though.

I think I will assign any new package user installing things in
Perl in a new group, let it be "perlish".
Then I will make writeable by that group all the files in the

Perhaps -o+w is the right option, while +o+w is not. Just a guess.
