--- 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.
