 Currently the master branch builds that way without any testsuite issue.

+One of the tests really put boxes on its knees:

+One can build libc this way:
+
+    $ mkdir build
+    $ cd build
+    $ unset CFLAGS
+    $ ../configure --prefix=/usr
+    $ make
+    $ make -C ../iconvdata objdir=$PWD subdir=iconvdata ..=../ $PWD/iconvdata/gconv-modules
+    $ make check -k
+
+One can run tests with the new libc by hand:

+    $ ./testrun.sh ~/test
