I wonder why this only occurs under jhalfs ? I cant find any reports of this error from people building current SVN non-jhalfs.

This has been in the book for a little over a week. First, discount anybody who doesn't run the testsuites at all. Second, discount people (me, anyway) who have only done ICA on it - running testsuites in ICA is pointless (no locales the first time, no expect on subsequent builds). My last LFS-svn build with testsuites was from just before man-db went in.

Of the handful of people left, it isn't surprising most of them are automating, and the majority of these automators are using jhalfs.

More generally, the number of people building any random version of LFS-svn is typically in single figures. Some of these people are new builders who probably haven't done any scripting and are slowly completing manual builds.
