In my experience, it has always been required to use “make install
DESTDIR=…” to update a running system, and then move the resulting
temporary tree into place with a single command.  (The elimination of
symbolic links actually makes this step more reliable because there
are no older glibc .so files left behind.)  It never occurred to me
that we regressed this functionality because it didn't actually work
before for me.
