I'm with Dan on this... It seems like these 'fixes' are just lowering the 
expectations of tests when testing against a GLIBC system. It's perfectly 
appropriate to XFAIL them and let them fail if that is the case.

If you're concerned about test coverage being lower because though there are 
lots of assertions in a single test file, it only takes one failure to 
effectively hide the results of the others, then I think it makes more sense to 
find a way to split the test. That way the part that is XFAIL'd is a bit more 
minimal.
