- Update to glibc 2.35
Major new features:
* Unicode 14.0.0 Support
* Bump r_version in the debugger interface to 2
* Support for the C.UTF-8 locale has been added to glibc
* <math.h> functions that round their results to a narrower type, and
corresponding <tgmath.h> macros, are added from TS 18661-1:2014, TS
18661-3:2015 and draft ISO C2X
* <math.h> functions for floating-point maximum and minimum,
corresponding to new operations in IEEE 754-2019, and corresponding
<tgmath.h> macros, are added from draft ISO C2X
* <math.h> macros for single-precision float constants are added as a
GNU extension
* The __STDC_IEC_60559_BFP__ and __STDC_IEC_60559_COMPLEX__ macros are
predefined as specified in TS 18661-1:2014
* The exp10 functions in <math.h> now have a corresponding type-generic
macro in <tgmath.h>
* The ISO C2X macro _PRINTF_NAN_LEN_MAX has been added to <stdio.h>
* printf-family functions now support the %b format for output of
integers in binary, as specified in draft ISO C2X, and the %B variant
of that format recommended by draft ISO C2X
* A new DSO sorting algorithm has been added in the dynamic linker that uses
topological sorting by depth-first search (DFS), solving performance issues
of the existing sorting algorithm when encountering particular circular
object dependency cases
* A new tunable, glibc.rtld.dynamic_sort, can be used to select between
the two DSO sorting algorithms
* ABI support for a new function '__memcmpeq'. '__memcmpeq' is meant
to be used by compilers for optimizing usage of 'memcmp' when its
return value is only used for its boolean status

- Update to glibc 2.33
* The dynamic linker accepts the --list-tunables argument which prints
all the supported tunables.
* The dynamic linker accepts the --argv0 argument and provides opportunity
to change argv[0] string.
* The dynamic linker loads optimized implementations of shared objects
from subdirectories under the glibc-hwcaps directory on the library
search path if the system's capabilities meet the requirements for
that subdirectory.
* The new --help option of the dynamic linker provides usage and
information and library search path diagnostics.
* The mallinfo2 function is added to report statistics as per mallinfo,
but with larger field widths to accurately report values that are
larger than fit in an integer.
* Add <sys/platform/x86.h> to provide query macros for x86 CPU features.
* A new fortification level _FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 is available.
* The mallinfo function is marked deprecated.
* When dlopen is used in statically linked programs, alternative library
implementations from HWCAP subdirectories are no longer loaded.
* The deprecated <sys/vtimes.h> header and the function vtimes have been
removed.
* On s390(x), the type float_t is now derived from the macro
__FLT_EVAL_METHOD__ that is defined by the compiler, instead of being
hardcoded to double.
* A future version of glibc will stop loading shared objects from the
"tls" subdirectories on the library search path, the subdirectory that
corresponds to the AT_PLATFORM system name, and also stop employing
the legacy AT_HWCAP search mechanism.
* CVE-2021-3326: An assertion failure during conversion from the
ISO-20220-JP-3 character set using the iconv function has been fixed.

in either case a custom GCC is needed)
