As an end user I often patch the glibc version incompatibility away with
https://github.com/corsix/polyfill-glibc
$ ./polyfill-glibc --target-glibc=2.17 /path/to/my-program
This often leads to discovering
new
version incompatibilities in other libs. But as the article says others usually
can
be statically compiled.

Wow. This is huge. This patch doesn’t risk weird runtime errors due to missing polyfills or anything? Does it risk polyfilling irrelevant functions that aren’t referenced and bloating?
