Oh yes, I acknowledge that.

arch-specific sysdeps directories other than the abilist changes, i.e.
there are no architecture-specific headers.  Bugs in C11 should thus be
limited to C11 and not creep into nptl and definitely remain in the
generic scope.

So my argument is that a trivial addition of new symbols should have
minimal effect on architecture-specific testing given that there is no
other change.
