If we link against a newer glibc 2.34 and then try and our LD_PRELOAD is run against a binary on a host with an older libc, we see symbol errors since in glibc 2.34, pthread and dl are merged into libc itself. We need to use the older form of linking so use glibc binaries from an older release to force this. We only use minimal symbols from these anyway. pthread_atfork is problematic, particularly on arm so use the internal glibc routine it maps too. This was always present in the main libc from 2.3.2 onwards. Yes this is horrible. Better solutions welcome.
