Here's what I did.  I got a box from Beaker with Fedora 30.

# dnf install screen
# dnf download --source glibc
# dnf builddep glibc-*.src.rpm
# screen
# dnf install git
# git clone --depth 1 git://sourceware.org/git/glibc.git git
# mkdir build
# cd build
# ../git/configure --prefix=/usr
# time nohup make -j24
# time nohup make -j24 subdirs=libio check

The output ends with:

FAIL: libio/tst-wfile-ascii
Summary of test results:
      1 FAIL
     87 PASS
make[1]: *** [Makefile:411: tests] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/root/git'
make: *** [Makefile:9: check] Error 2

The test log contains:

tst-wfile-ascii.c:37: numeric comparison failure
   left: 256 (0x100); from: system (iconvconfig)
  right: 0 (0x0); from: 0
error: 1 test failures

Locale settings (inherited via SSH):

Root vs non-root doesn't make a difference.

Thanks,
