I have a working sanity checker that checks for any glibc functions
affected by -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 or -D_TIME_BITS=64.
The INSANE_SKIP functionality needs some more polish but I'd be happy to
contribute it.

Some libraries use both 32 and 64 bit APIs to glibc and needs exceptions
in the checker.

I have not run any world builds with this checker, I've focused on the
recipes we actually use so far so we could get to a testable system.  My
biggest worry at the moment is rust, I know to little to know if it is
an actual problem and how to fix it.

I would like to be part of any "y2038 team" for Yocto.
