I have submitted the v3 of the patch and I am waiting for it to be
rebuilt:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2023-August/151273.html

glibc side, just an API breakage. But it causes an ABI breakage on the
perl side.

I believe so (well probably on all architectures for multiarch sync).

I agree.
