I have efi turned off in the bios.  Stinkin' efi.  ;-)

I am now not 100% positive which, if not all of the switches are
critical.  After some checking it appears to be stubs.h that is the
culprit.  If I *don't* do this; mv -v /usr/include/gnu/stubs{-64,}.h,
when building glibc-2.18 on the x86_64-64 then grub builds fine as
stated in the book.  I refer to;

http://cross-lfs.org/view/svn/x86_64-64/final-system/eglibc.html

I am going to do some more experimenting but it seems to me that not
overwriting stubs.h might be the better solution.

Life is good,
