1132 <para>[jhuntwork] - Fixed the re-adjusting of the toolchain in chapter
1133 6 so that chapter 6 GCC and Binutils links against the proper Glibc and
1134 so that we don't have to keep the binutils directories from chapter 5.
1135 Also moved a note about saving the /tools directory to the beginning of
1136 chapter 6. Fixes bug 1677. Thanks to Chris Staub, Alexander Patrakov,
