            Bug ID: 20452
           Summary: Addition of sysdep.o to libpthread.a breaks relinking
                    libpthread.a
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.24
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: nptl
          Assignee: fweimer at redhat dot com

  Target Milestone: ---
             Flags: security-

Some glibc downstreams relink libpthread.a into a single object file, to
support applications which use weak symbol references to detect if libpthread
has been linked into a process.

The addition of sysdep.o in this commit:

    Add INLINE_SYSCALL_ERROR_RETURN_VALUE

breaks this relinking step because both libc.a and the combined libpthread .o
file define __syscall_error.
