I hava a build problem upgrading Mythtv to 0.28.1-r1 [1] on an ~amd64
system. The problem is related to a glibc API change [2] introduced in
glibc-2.24 and still present in glibc-2.25. So I'm thinking to try the
build with an older glibc version.

Downgrading the system to glibc to 2.23-r3 means trouble?
If not, an emerge @preserved-rebuild after the downgrade will be
sufficient to not break the rest of the system?
I suppose a quickpkg of the whole world before the downgrade would be a
good idea, just in case...

thanks,

raffaele
