elf/tst-audit1 and others break on i386. Usually, this is due to
dlmopen/stdio sync issues, but in this case, it might be caused by a
_IO_stdin_used mismatch. For some reason, I don't have debuginfo for
the inner libc, so this is rather difficult to diagnose. I won't be
able to fix this before the freeze, I'm afraid.
I think we should unify the libio locking first across glibc (aka get
rid of _IO_MTSAFE_IO). This will reduce the size of the patch a bit.
Thanks,
Florian
