Works for me here.

I've downloaded lfs 1.5.0 sources and tried to build it.

OS X build requires user to manually change the config file:

# OS dependent
#LIB_OPTION= -shared #for Linux
LIB_OPTION= -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup #for MacOS X

(I think that's a bad practice!)

After the change it builds the correct bundle for me.

$ file lfs.so
lfs.so: Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64
