Builds and works fine, just a few warnings during build:

../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/execve.c:40: warning: passing arg 2 of `__syscall_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/execve.c:40: warning: passing arg 3 of `__syscall_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

../sysdeps/posix/pwrite.c:32: warning: implicit declaration of function `__libc_lseek'
../sysdeps/posix/open64.c:37: warning: implicit declaration of function `__libc_open'
