I just reran make check in
/tmp/portage/glibc-2.2.1/work/glibc-2.2.1/buildhere, and I didn't get
that problem. It didn't happen when I ran make check manually under
linux-2.4.1-pre8. I'm thinking the problem is one of 3 things: a)
there's some kind of problem w/ the ebuild script, or b) it just
doesn't happen all the time, or c) for one reason or another, make
check doesn't bother to run the lfs check the second time around. I
haven't checked to see if c) it the case yet, but I'm pretty sure
that's not it. I don't see how the ebuild script would cause that to
happen either, so I'm guessing it just doesn't always happen.
