If somebody makes LFS work again, adding it back is certainly desireable, but as it is now nobody seems to care much about it, and it has suffered considerable bitrot since its somewhat haphazard integration. Several other people have commented that NetBSD has got it going. How difficult would it be to merge the NetBSD stuff?
