I have removed the glibc-2.13-2 package until a fix is committed to

While I understand why Allan did this, shouldn't this be unnecessary for
the [testing] repo? Those who use it know what to do, after all....

Probably.  And if the breakage was more minor, I would have left it
there (e.g. what has been done with the make package).   But given I
still do not 100% understand the bug and the there is no real schedule
for an upstream fix, I thought it best to just make everybody's life
easier and remove the package for the time being.

Allan

Ah. I guess the fact that its not really an upstream release but a bunch
of backported stuff also has an effect?


Not really. Most of the toolchain is built from snapshots from the upstream release branches rather than actual releases. Normally that results in less breakages! :P
