But I think the point is that some distros now come with, for example, 
dash as the default shell linked to /bin/sh, or as the OP apparently 
found, mawk as the default AWK interpreter. If LFS is to become "more 
than a book", it may be worthwhile to reconsider the "somewhat 
arbitrary" host requirements, or at least point out that certain distros 
may have the tools but they may not be invoked by default.
