Not a problem.  The funny thing is that I've seen a lot of people post
the "/tools/bin/cc doesn't exist" problem, and it never occurred to me
what the issue was.  Yesterday was the first time that I thought that
maybe gcc itself was the problem and not some other toolchain issue.

I'm not sure how it would go into the book, but maybe a sanity check
at the end of gcc-pass2 (the first package after the toolchain
adjustment):

readelf -l /tools/bin/cc | grep '/tools/lib/ld-linux.so.2'

I'll bring something up on lfs-dev.
