Hi,
For me, on both a 32 bit VM (LFS SVN-20141225) and 64 bit VM (LFS around the
end of october, with updated gcc), they work, except that I had to disable one
test ("socket"), using a sed that I have added to the book (maybe I should
have be more precise about that in the log message). I did not need any of the
options above.
The socket test throws a segmentation fault, which prevents the other tests to
be run.
All the others just pass.

Actually, my aim is to try to help you with xindy, if I can. However, As noted
by D. Hofstadter in "Gödel, Escher and Bach", there is a recursive postulate
(the Hofstadter law: "it always take more time than you initially thought,
even when you consider the Hofstadter law" (I do not have the English version
of Hofstadter's book, so the actual words might be different).
