Just run the test by itself:
cd libc-sources/localedata
/bin/sh -e tst-rpmatch.sh /build-directory-with-slash-at-end/
(in your case: /bin/sh -e tst-rpmatch.sh /usr/src/glibc/build/ )

Now you've got to find out which of the tests fails.  Is /bin/sh
failing or is the newly build glibc failing?  What shell and version
is /bin/sh?  If it's not bash, please try again with bash.
