While reviewing the last 19 months worth of changes of the sourceware master branch of glibc (should perhaps do this more regularely...), I successively picked a few commits, put them onto my Savannah branch, and re-ran make two or three times. Upon the last attempt, I got a working build! It is some of the following: e23fe25b33324a9ea992276c1a4f04127bf9ba4b bc5fb0374c3ce6eca92f44d13a55b066e707c4a0 9acbe24da8c71704d03e30d1223f997442d4be0c b32b8b451b398ebae33d4cf8039c03f4d615c0c3 3c88fe1e3ab8c6115e9b0c6eb109718da2116a33 5be9d05d3136460cf6cedd3823fd236aeebe83ef bdaa77bc20bbaf5a78da541b993cfead8b8c1b1c a726d7960e8a4ac784131f591114a0ef14246d8b bdaa77bc20bbaf5a78da541b993cfead8b8c1b1c 56801c50d497685de85b1901193c9c79fadb513c 22cd1c9bcf57c5829d65b6da825f7a459d40c9eb f09677388a44cd1460f8986ef1b096c73bd5b958 fa41c84d73be804639ecb2250f0b793b1a6f765e 42acbb92c861e97a6e1293ea853db88342a1bf53 283007197c526f8f59bdc029a38d76538c70b0ff 5e49c52efdb37eb0aa315156f39056f25ff9ddaa 4a531bb0b3b582cb693de9f76d2d97d970f9a5d5 I will not research this any further -- we now know (hope?!) that it is no coincidence and is fixed upstream -- and will continue with advancing our baseline, and fix all the fallout.
