736	typeface confuses vertical bar | with lowercase letter l	mark@…	lfs-book@…	"On page 99 of v5 of The LinuxfromScratch Book (installation of perl 5.8) the 
typeface of the PDF version makes it hard to decide whether there are vertical 
bars, the uppercase letter I or the lowercase letter l... which makes a 
difference to perl :)

The line in question is:

echo 'static_ext=""IO re Fcntl""' >> hints/linux.sh

The characters in question are the I in IO and the l in Fcntl (in fact, it 
wasn't until I cut-and-paste the line into this textbox that I realized the 
first character was a capital I... it looked like a vertical bar | in my PDF 
reader [version 5]).

BTW, I'm really enjoying this exercise. Keep up the good work!
