All autopkgtests for the newly accepted glibc (2.27-3ubuntu1.6) for bionic have finished running. The following regressions have been reported in tests triggered by the package:

[regression potential] Apart from the general concerns about a glibc rebuild, this is a simple change to a simple script. Performing the test as in the test case section is enough to ensure it still works.
