(i'm hoping this is the right place to ask this.)

  i'm reading the current version of the cross-lfs book and have a
couple questions about building the cross-compile toolchain WRT to
binutils.

  section 5.5.1 lists the options to use to configure binutils, and
i'm curious about two of those options as compared to how the
"crosstool" utility builds a toolchain.

  first, crosstool doesn't use "--with-lib-path" but *does* use
"--with-sysroot".  does that second option subsume the first in terms
of the library search path?

  also, crosstool doesn't use "--enable-shared" when configuring
binutils.  what's the significance of that?  clearly, since crosstool
does build a working toolchain, that option can't be essential.
thanks for any info.
