+ <para>By default, the linker would generate both the GNU-style
+ hash table and the classic ELF hash table for shared libraries and
+ dynamically linked executables. The hash tables are only intended
+ for a dynamic linker to perform symbol lookup. On LFS the dynamic
+ linker (provided by the Glibc package) will always use the
+ GNU-style hash table which is faster to query. So the classic
+ ELF hash table is completely useless. This makes the the linker
+ only generate the GNU-style hash table by default, so we can avoid
+ wasting time to generate the classic ELF hash table when we build
+ the packages, or wasting disk space to store it.</para>
