Yeah, so I did...sometimes 'svn annotate' sucks :) >> I have not yet had the time to dig deeper into it, so it's possible >> I'm missing something, however, the script's comments say it's >> testing for a broken popt lib.

It seems odd that pkg-config bundles a version of popt known to be broken, and requires a configure switch (with-installed-popt) to use a system-installed version. popt is certainly small enough to bring over to LFS to fix this issue properly. Either that, or remove the sed as it is completely bogus, and just inform the reader that 1 test is known to fail.
