For the background, bigloo ships a slightly modified version of libgc,
which is the one using libc_stack_end.

The fact is, IIRC this "removal" already happenned more than 2 years
ago(see #192039).  And at that time, it was told that rebuilding libgc
against the new glibc would solve the problem, since then it will not
find the offending symbol to be available, and therefore would not use
it.  And it seemed to work.

But every now and then this problem keeps resurfacing for bigloo,
while the libgc package does not seem to suffer from a similar issue.

Ryan, do you recall has any special treatment for the libgc package
for this issue ?  According to the changelog, it seems not.

Best regards,
