The problem is that the amd64 and ia64 build daemons which tried to
build this version of eglibc are all using eatmydata. eatmydata do not
correctly simulate fsync, msync and fdatasync as cancellation points. It
should be possible fixing that by calling pthread_testcancel() from
eatmydata, though I haven't tried that yet.
