The effect will not change, but with symlinks ld can save some time
invoking open(), read(), etc. syscalls and parsing the linker scripts.
Note that I've also removed "libcursesw" symlink because this library
has never existed. Instead libcurses.so is created as a symlink
direct to libncursesw.so.
instead of the 8-bit ncurses.
We don't provide the 8-bit ncurses library and we are "faking" it using
ncursesw. Thus innocent package may be compiled with the 8-bit ABI
(because it does not know what we are doing and so it does not use
the "expected" preprocessor definitions to enable the wide ABI) but
linked against ncursesw, causing a potential ABI mismatch.
- according to our typography, referring to a manual page should be
<filename>page(x)</filename>
- don't enclose punctuation into quotes
- use <option> for option
Since it is needed for both building and installing, exporting it
allows to have it defined even if building as a regular user (so that
sudo is run for installing) or using a package manager (which usually
runs in a new shell and forgets unexported variables)

The sed command has changed ../rules.d/70-power-switch.rules to
"../rules.d", causing the install command to fail.
Change the command enumerating ../rules.d/*.rules but
70-power-switch.rules to a "find" command. Edit another "find" command
so the styles of them are the same.
There are some suspicious "nptl/tst-robust" test failures in Glibc, but
all other test results are clean. To be diagnosed...
And note that jhalfs needs an update to work with the merged parallelism
changes.
Set -Dlogind=false -Dvconsole=false to disable out-of-scope udev rules.
Use "ninja -n" to list the targets, so the disabled udev rules won't
show up then we can remove some "rm" commands. Do not remove
70-power-switch.rules from the source directory so we won't break
multilib.
There seems some guy overusing this method so we should add more
caveats.
- Use /opt/foo-x.y instead of /usr/pkg/foo-x.y. /opt/foo-x.y is used in
BLFS for Rustc, Qt5, etc. and /usr/pkg is not FHS-compliant.
- Use /etc/ld.so.conf and LDFLAGS instead of LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Relying
on LD_LIBRARY_PATH is generally a bad idea, and we also don't use it
in BLFS for /opt packages.
- Discourage this method for general use, mention it may not work for
vital packages like Glibc.
We'd fixed#5180 by forcing LN='ln -f'. But this has stopped to work
with gawk-5.2.2 (and 5.3.0) because now the building system explicitly
checks the existence of gawk-&gawk-version; and refuses to update it if
it exists.
Now removing the file before "make install" seems the easiest solution.

It allows binutils to link to zstd, so binutils will have
zstd-compressed debug section support (the compression is not enabled
by default but can be enabled via LDFLAGS etc. if wanted).
We also need to add libzstd.so.&zstd-version; into online_usrlib to
prevent a crash in stripping.
