Harrington's port to arm:

"info gccinstall" says:
'--with-glibc-version=MAJOR.MINOR'
Tell GCC that when the GNU C Library (glibc) is used on the target
it will be version MAJOR.MINOR or later. Normally this can be
detected from the C library's header files, but this option may be
needed when bootstrapping a cross toolchain without the header
files available for building the initial bootstrap compiler.
So it can, and should be set to the version of glibc which will be built
for the chroot environment.
On x86_64, currently it does not make any difference with values >=
2.13. But it may make a difference if a new feature is added to glibc,
or on other platforms.

One change was needed to systemd-249 due to changes in the linux
keernel version 5.14 and later.
A change to ncurses was needed to ensure the .pc files are placed in
the right location (/usr/lib/pkgconfig).
There are some discussion on gcc-help from someone (mis)using LFS to
build a "general" toolchain. Let's stop it before off-topic message got
into lfs-support.
It was moved to chapter 4 during merged-/usr update. However the ln
commands in chapater 4 are "trivial", so move it back to chapter 5 glibc
where we start to use a "different syntactic version" of it.
