Chapter 6 Glibc Make error (probably fixed)

[Matthew Sewell]

I believe I have discovered the problem.

When I built the perl binaries, I used an improper nomenclature.   
Rather than the correct name of '/tools/lib/perl5/5.8.8', I  
mistakenly named the directory '/tools/lib/perl5/perl5.8.8'.  It  
looks like I was so exited to be nearing the chroot environment that  
I became careless ;)
