-   <para>One set of tests in the GCC test suite is known to exhaust the default

+    <para>GCC may need more stack space compiling some extremely complex
+    code patterns.  As a precaution for the host distros with a tight stack
+    limit, explicitly set the stack size hard limit to infinite.
+    On most host distros (and the final LFS system) the hard limit is
+    infinite by default, but there is no harm done by setting it explicitly.
+    It's not necessary to change the stack size soft limit because GCC will
+    automatically set it to an appropriate value, as long as the value does
+    not exceed the hard limit:</para>
