When we use -strip-unneeded it removes some symbols that are needed in static
libraries that may be needed in addition to debugging symbols. Changing the
stripping to the more conservative --strip-debug retains thise symbols.
In the case of libc.a the unstripped file size is 22.4 MB. Using
--strip-debug reduces the file size by 74 percent to 5.9 MB.
Using --strip-unneeded only reduces the file further by 89 KB,
so any gain is relatively trivial.

This seems just a remnant from the pre-cross-chap5 era. Now with the cross-
toolchain the build system cannot find guile headers and libraries, thus
guile should be disabled by default.
I've also tried this on a host distro with guile installed.
The autoconf-based build system of kmod needs this, but we've switched
to meson where this is the default.
Also it's to be decided if we should put "lsmod" back to bin.

I cannot see why this is ever needed. The default is "the compiler
default" which should be correct as the compiler has been configured
--with-sysroot. And the explanation for this switch is just repeating a
common misunderstanding. In fact glibc **never** attempts to figure out
what features the kernel has from the headers. Instead it depends on
the kernel-features.h files in the source tree and the --with-kernel
value to determine the kernel features that it can rely on.
- Document the autoconf behavior about "the cross-compilation mode," to
explain the necessity of --build=$(path/to/config.guess) added for
#5304.
- Mention the libtool fallout regrading cross-compilation.
- Remove the explanation for CC_FOR_TARGET, which is already removed
much earlier.
- Note the cross-toolchain cannot be used anymore after installing gcc
pass 2.
- "Stage 3" (i.e. the final LFS system) is NOT optional.

There was two problems:
- the sect1 template did not process the footnote
- footnote processing needed to use a template matching
footnote/para[1], but we had a template matching para
at a higher precendence level.
So:
- call process.footnotes at the end of the sect1 template
- Add a templates matching footnote/para[1] at the same import
level as the template matching para (this just call the original
template)
We also add a priority 1 to the sect1 template in chunk-code.xsl,
although it is not strictly necessary. This is what upstream
recommends...

Remove $LFS/{bin,lib,sbin} from the chown commands
This applies to 'Section 4.3. Adding the LFS User'
Remove static library in sysklogd
Accomplished with adding --disable-static to the configure options.
They were measured when we used -j1 and/or had not running the test
suite with parallel jobs yet. Now the values are even larger than the
total SBU including the test time, so they are just ridiculous.
The dependency has been dropped since the 2.1.0 release. It seems
nothing uses check in LFS as at now, maybe we should consider moving it
to BLFS or even just removing it.
