Hi,
  I am trying to compile a new linux system using Linux From 
Scratch(LFS). The compilation of binutils, gcc and kernel API headers 
was flawless(While making toolchain) but in the compilation of glibc i 
get this error and the compilation terminated...

mawk: scripts/gen-sorted.awk: line 19: regular expression compile failed 
(bad class -- [], [^] or [)

Seems that the source code is error some.

Some more manual commands suggests that either awk is not doing the job 
or really the script is buggy...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /mnt/e/sources/glibc-build: awk 
../glibc-2.5.1/scripts/gen-sorted.awk
awk: 1: unexpected character '.'
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /mnt/e/sources/glibc-build: cat 
../glibc-2.5.1/scripts/gen-sorted.awk | head -2
#! /usr/bin/awk -f
# Generate sorted list of directories.  The sorting is stable but with
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /mnt/e/sources/glibc-build: cat 
../glibc-2.5.1/scripts/gen-sorted.awk | head -19 | tail -1
  sub(/\/[^/]+$/, "", subdir);

But is this possible?
Line number 1 is a #! directive. I think i am missing something in awk 
flags..

Please if someone knows the compilation of glibc then help...
