--- Comment #4 from Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh at sourceware dot org> ---
This compilation issue has been fixed[1] upstream; clang and other non-gcc
compilers should now be able to build the reproducer correctly without any
linker errors.

There is the outstanding issue where static libraries and objects built with
older compilers against the older glibc may refuse to link correctly with
current glibc.  The __warn_memset_zero_len symbol has been missing for a while
now and nobody has complained specifically about that yet, so it appears that
this issue is rare and if not, being worked around in other ways.

If one needs this to be fixed in glibc by providing __warn_memset_zero_len and
provide the linker warning, please file a new bug report to discuss it.

commit dc274b141666766b8ef70992d887e3c0c5e41bed
Author: Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh@sourceware.org>

    Remove __warn_memset_zero_len [BZ #25399]

    Non-gcc compilers (clang and possibly other compilers that do not
    masquerade as gcc 5.0 or later) are unable to use
    __warn_memset_zero_len since the symbol is no longer available on
    glibc built with gcc 5.0 or later.  While it was likely an oversight
    that caused this omission, the fact that it wasn't noticed until
    recently (when clang closed the gap on _FORTIFY_SUPPORT) that the
    symbol was missing.

    Given that both gcc and clang are capable of doing this check in the
    compiler, drop all remaining signs of __warn_memset_zero_len from
    glibc so that no more objects are built with this symbol in future.

We should consider backports.
