glibc: fix parallel build issue with make-4.4
We only need a one-line change in upstream fix (because we don't use
"make --shuffle").  Add it as a sed for both Chapter 5 and Chapter 8.

Note that the "minimal" sed would be '/MAEKFLAGS :=/s/r/ -r/'.  I
included an additional ')' so it won't modify "-r" again to "- -r".

Tested "make" and "make check" on a x86_64 with -j8 and an arm64 with
-j24.

better solution.

glibc: update total test count
I have:

      2 FAIL
   5092 PASS
     67 UNSUPPORTED
     16 XFAIL
      4 XPASS

Let's not be too precise (or we'll need to explain the meaning of
"UNSUPPORTED").  IMO "over 5000" is fine (until we get 5500 tests).

binutils: don't wrap "gold" in <command>
"gold" is not an installed program (it's named "ld.gold").  So IMO it's
not proper to use <command>.

libelf: add a x86 specific test failure
It's caused by a minor GAS issue, which should be fixed in

cleanup: rephrase description for .la removal
Don't emphasis "static library" at all, to prevent anyone from thinking
"I need to use static libraries so I'll keep these .la files".  And warn
that .la files are known to break BLFS packages.

Revert "bash: document egrep warnings in tests"
This reverts commit 395eb462ba.

Not needed as grep is "patched".

Note that I'm still against "patching" grep.  All the complains for the
warnings are from only several people and IMO the complains are not
valid.  But as bdubbs has made the decision let's keep it for now and
review after some time...

gcc: some reword of PIE/SSP/ASLR note
Expand tabs to 8 spaces like everywhere else in the book.

Explain that shared libraries are already covered by ASLR, PIE expands
the ASLR to cover the exetutables.

In 2022, stack smashing attackings are mostly constructing a sequence of
faked returning addresses to exectute a series of function already
existing in the programs or libraries itself (ret2lib).  Returning into
the code injected by the attacker is almost impossible because on
i686 (with a PAE/NX enabled kernel) or x86_64, running injected code
needs W/X mappings and those are very rare these days.

glibc: don't mention "/lib" as ld.so search path anymore
Text change only.

Since 11.0, /lib is a symlink to usr/lib.  With libc_cv_slibdir=/usr/lib,
/lib won't be searched by default anymore (if someone mess up the system
by removing /lib symlink and create an real directory there, for example
the initramfs before r10.1-439).
