Arch Linux rolled on and this was fixed. Valgrinding the test program success.

$ file /lib/libc-2.14.1.so
/lib/libc-2.14.1.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 
(GNU/Linux), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), 
BuildID[sha1]=0xf4efb4f05d82dd16df1dbc336dc750e6e80ef5f9, for GNU/Linux 2.6.27, 
not stripped
