My preference would be to move xz to before GRUB. Ever since the original work went in to splitting chapter 5 and chapter 6 up, we've tried to keep things in chapter 6 from linking to anything in /tools if at all possible. I realise that in this case, it shouldn't make a difference, as GRUB isn't actually invoked until chapter 8, at which point chapter 6's xz is obviously available, but it just doesn't sit right with me that we're going to be explicitly trying to get it to build against something in /tools.
