keep getting errors like this when trying to compile glibc
host glibc is 2.6.1, so this glibc is for the LFS system.

Did you follow all the LFS instructions carefully? The assembler start complaining with:
../sysdeps/i386/fpu/s_frexp.S:66: Error: invalid identifier for ".ifdef"

Are all your environment variables set correctly and you're using the correct assembler and flags?

Hi

I get the same error when i try compiling glibc-2.11.1.

I'm following LFS 6.6 and i believe i have not deviated even a bit from what is given in there.
I even installed autoconf and texinfo.

Im using Fedora 13 and have made sure all the host requiremtns are met. The only thing that i think havnt got working is yacc, but is that needed? I've been trying to find a solution for this for hours now. Please help.

Thanks in advance.
