        <listitem>
          <para>Normally, using <parameter>--host</parameter> ensures that
          a cross-compiler is used for building GCC, and that compiler knows
          that it has to look for headers and libraries in <filename
          class="directory">$LFS</filename>. But the build system for GCC uses
          other tools, which are not aware of this location. This switch is
          needed so those tools will find the needed files in <filename
          class="directory">$LFS</filename>, and not on the host.</para>
        </listitem>
      </varlistentry>

      <varlistentry>
        <term><parameter>--target=$LFS_TGT</parameter></term>
        <listitem>
          <para>We are cross-compiling GCC, so it's impossible to build
          target libraries (<filename class="libraryfile">libgcc</filename>
          and <filename class="libraryfile">libstdc++</filename>) with the
          previously compiled GCC binaries&mdash;those binaries won't run on the
          host.  The GCC build system will attempt to use the host's
          C and C++ compilers as a workaround by default.
          Building the GCC target libraries with a different
          version of GCC is not supported, so using the host's compilers may cause
          the build to fail. This parameter ensures the libraries are built by GCC
          pass 1.</para>

        <listitem>
          <para>Allow <filename class="libraryfile">libstdc++</filename> to
          use the shared <filename class="libraryfile">libgcc</filename> being
          built in this pass, instead of the static version that was built in GCC
          pass 1. This is necessary to support C++ exception
          handling.</para>

          <para>Disable GCC sanitizer runtime libraries.  They are not
          needed for the temporary installation.  This switch is necessary
          to build GCC without
          <systemitem class='library'>libcrypt</systemitem> installed for
          the target.  In <xref linkend='ch-tools-gcc-pass1'/> it was
          implied by <parameter>--disable-libstdcxx</parameter>, but now we
          have to explicitly pass it.</para>

    <para>As a finishing touch, create a utility symlink. Many programs and scripts
    run <command>cc</command> instead of <command>gcc</command>, which is
    used to keep programs generic and therefore usable on all kinds of UNIX
    systems where the GNU C compiler is not always installed. Running
    <command>cc</command> leaves the system administrator free to decide
    which C compiler to install:</para>
