The goal of the removal was able to progress with the migration of glibc
2.38 to testing to not block other packages for a long time. Anyway this
strategy does not work for glibc 2.39 (it causes a FTBFS of glibc), so
we have to solve the issues before being able to get glibc 2.39 to
unstable.

Among the 4 failures, cxref already got fixed. For aspectc++ and cbmc, I
agree with you that the issues have to be fixed at the package level.
For rocm-hipamd, the maintainer claims this is a toolchain issue...

As the one who reported the issue in the glibc upstream tracker, I'm now
of the opinion it's not a glibc bug, but rather issues with the
individual packages that are now FTBFS. As far as I know, this is either
a parser pretending to be GCC without implementing all the GCC features
(e.g. aspectc++), and/or a compiler targetting another platform while
still using the system headers (e.g. rocm-hipamd).
