Actually ignore this, I hadn't read the bugs
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102853
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102879
carefully enough - a link was introduced in glibc-devel that messes up the
library search order and it ends up trying to mix tls and non-tls
libraries.
