I trust the RH, SuSE and Debian tool chains because they have any neccessary patches applied for compiler bugs and they are running against a properly built glibc and binutils. If you simply grab the latest and greatest of everything from ftp.gnu.org then quite often it won't work. If you'd like to me to spend hours debugging an LFS system where its probably a tool error, then you can ask for current hourly rates.
