+Chapter 5: Added Makedev to chapter 5. We don't create the device files
+here, only copy the MAKEDEV script and make a temp copy which will be
+used to create device files. This second file (MAKEDEV-temp) doesn't
+contain user names and group names but only user id's and group id's. We
+need a few device files to get Glibc installed, but before GLibc is
+installed user and group names are not recognized yet; only the numeric
+id's. This requires a slightly modified MAKEDEV script which will be
+generated by patching the original one. This patching is done here in
+chapter 5.

Chapter 5+6: Added the fileutils-4.0 patch which is needed to compile
the fileutils package on Glibc-2.2 based systems (such as the upcoming
LFS-3.0 system).
