Control: affects -1 + qemu glibc
I think this will need re-assigning to another package but not clear
which as yet.
Thanks to Chris's investigations in the last few hours he's identified a
couple of bug reports that may be the cause or related; they do seem to
shed some needed insights from glibc experts onto this and contain quite
a few patch attempts.
>From my initial reading of both and considering our experience here with
the debvm arch-test succeeding a week ago but failing now I wonder if
this is simply because the host running the CI jobs previously had
offsets that fitted inside 32 bits but later exceeded that and so an
overflow occurred (since host is returning 64 bits but the emulated
qemu-arm 32-bit glibc throws away the top 32 bits).
glibc <> qemu-user (going on since 2018):
