My host system is quite normal, although a bit old: Dell dimension-8300, cpu Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.60GHz, 32 bits, memory 2560MiB. I am building lfs on a external usb diskdrive on which I built lfs 6.4 succesfully a few years ago. I think I will try to use Perl-5.16.2 instead of 5.16.1. They will not differ that much. If that fails, I think I will start "from scratch" with LFS 7.3. Changing my scriptfiles to the latest version is not that much work. But that will not be today. Anyway, I am very grateful for your efforts to solve the problem.
