It's a little more complicated than that. It would involve unpacking the linuxthreads tarball into the glibc source dir and changing configure options. Also, I would suspect with such a drastic change in the libc you should probably rebuild binutils and gcc as well. By the time you do that, it would be much safer to just build a fresh LFS using the 5.1.1 book for the toolchain and the current testing book for the lesser packages. You still might hit a snag or three, but most little niggles can be worked around easily enough (like the flex issue that you already noticed). -- Archaic Want control, education, and security from your operating system?
