<userinput>	tmp &gt; lib/Makefile.in : </userinput></screen> This is used
to fix a problem with building fileutils statically on glibc 2.2.3 systems.  If

<para><userinput>--libexecdir=$LFS/bin:</userinput> This configure option will
set the program executable directory to $LFS/bin. This is normally set
to /usr/libexec, but nothing is placed in it. Changing it just prevents
that directory from being created.</para>
