Just to be clear, though. LFS is _not_ trying cross compiling. The only 
thing cross-compiled in LFS's new method is Glibc in the temporary tools 
section - and even with that, the host and target system must be the 
same architecture. Even though the second pass of Binutils and GCC will 
also make use of the cross compiler and linker, they are actually native 
builds.
