Dave,

Are you able to update the wiki page with your testing information?
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Release/2.24

If you can't, just paste the failure lists here and the gcc/binutils/kernel
version you used and I'll update it.

Testing 32-bit and 64-bit information is also important to know.
