But I doubt that interface has ever changed signature in glibc, and is not
available anywhere else.  I agree that we can't guarantee things, but it
seems like only a theoretical worry that we would declare it differently
than the underlying implementation, and it also seems like something that
our testsuite should be able to catch.
