You want to risk destabilizing Postgres by backpatching something this
complex so the regression tests can be run on all stable branches?  I
think you are overestimating our desire to take on risk.

Also, in my patch, the parentheses here:

    #if defined(__linux__) && (! defined(__GLIBC__) && ! defined(__UCLIBC__))

are unnecessary so they should be removed:

    #if defined(__linux__) && ! defined(__GLIBC__) && ! defined(__UCLIBC__)

I am only willing to apply my patch, and only to master.  Other
committers might be more willing.
