I must say you are having more difficulty than I can remember anyone 
having for a long, long time. Two questions:

1. Are you hand-typing the commands from the book, or doing cut-and-paste?

2. What happens when you actually try to figure these problems out 
yourself by googling the errors and seeing what results you get. Most 
who are sincere list a problem and the steps they've taken to try to 
resolve the problem. You seem to get in trouble and just stop and ask 
blfs-support. Not a good way to learn.

I honestly do wish you good luck, but it sounds to me like you are in 
over your head. If I were you I would start over from the very 
beginning. You should not be having these issues if you carefully 
followed the instructions from the book.

At any rate, I rebuilt rust after building LLVM, and it seems that that error
has been resolved. I have a new issue trying to install Mesa, and am again
stuck.
