Vladimir has reported that the link target of this <ulink> is wrong.
Note that the link target and the displayed text should be the same,
thus use <ulink ... /> instead of <ulink ...> ... </ulink> to simplify
it.

The incompatibilty between systemd and CONFIG_AUDIT has been fixed since
Linux kernel 3.14, thus there is no reason to disable it on LFS. And we
are referring to pam_loginuid.so from /etc/pam.d in BLFS, which is
completely useless if CONFIG_AUDIT is disabled.

So if a test times out, it will be noted in jhalfs log.
Also remove "-l" so the output will be something like
./nptl/tst-thread-affinity-pthread: Timed out ...
instead of just a puzzling "./nptl/tst-thread-affinity-pthread".
As we've already concluded, overwriting a shared object can crash
running processes using code or data from this shared object. For
example if gdm is crashed, we may leave the system unusable :(.
I spent some time investigating the difference of vim test results from
different editors. It turns out the value of TERM can affect the test
results in a deterministic way: when TERM=xterm-256color all tests pass,
when TERM=linux one test fails, and when TERM=vt100 20+ tests fail.
As we are redirecting the output to a file, the actual type of the
terminal does not matter and we can just specify a value known to work.
The book already mentions the vlock program needs PAM to be built, but
in dependencies page we say Kbd has no external optional dependencies.
This is obviously incorrect...
Glibc tests occansionally fail due to a timeout because:
1. The hardware is slower than the developers expected.
2. Some tests use multiple or even all CPU cores internally, for e.g.
with 8 active CPU cores we may end up running 8 tests (due to -j8)
each of them uses 8 cores in the worst case, resulting a severe
congestion.
I'm almost sure nptl/tst-thread-affinity* are cases of 2.
Let's document how to rule out the timed out tests instead of making the
list of known failures longer and longer.
