The note probably shouldn't be repeated. When in ch10, the target  
system is already booted or chrooted with the CLFS system. I've not  
had any issues at all when I build with a 64 bit host for a 32bit  
target and ch10. Can you explain why the note should be needed in  
Ch10? It doesn't need to be repeated in ch6 either. Also, since GMP  
6.0.0 I suspect we need to see if it acts the same and sets options  
based on the host it is running with. We may not even need that note  
anymore. Ch5 probably isn't even the right place for that note. Ch6  
seems to be the more reasonable place for the note if it is still  
required as the tools will be running on the target system.

Sincerely,
