It does not; Bastian's patch looks fine to me.  I do this for glibc
backports on a regular basis.

The only thing that might be affected would be GLIBC_PRIVATE, and
nothing needs to be compatible with GLIBC_PRIVATE outside the glibc
packages.  I don't think it will actually affect GLIBC_PRIVATE, either,
but I'd have to play around with it to make sure.
