This is something we need to fix on the glibc side. Maybe I'm reading
the conversation on the bug incorrectly, but I interpreted it as someone
expressing interest on working on it:
<https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31991>
If not patch materializes from that, I'll eventually have to come back
to that (but I'm juggling lots of other obligations).

Sorry, which aspect of the bug are you referring to?
Thanks,
