No, it's not an issue with Glibc-2.12.1.  It's an issue with M4 that is 
triggered by
Glibc-2.12.1.  The function and constant that path.c reference are declared in
Glibc's sys/stat.h header, but that header isn't being included by path.c.  It 
is
quite probable that another of Glibc's headers that path.c does include used to 
also
include sys/stat.h in previous versions of Glibc but no longer does, hence why 
we're
seeing this latent M4 bug now.

Matt.
