Greetings,

More info I left out:

The lfs-arm book is in synch with the LFS book, but there are a few edits 
regarding arm in the glibc and gcc sections.

ISL is also included ( matter of preference, also the gcc contrib script will 
download isl, may be required in the future)

Readline disables bracketed paste by default

GRUB can be removed (Boot section still needs updating)

If we did incorporate that into the LFS book, we'd need a way for the xml to 
render a book for arm kinda like we do for systemd and sysvinit. I kept it 
separate now as it is the best way. If someone chimes in with a way to manage 
it, sure. For now, it is separate.

Sincerely,

William Harrington
