Yes; I suspect they're added for a reason. If not for the futex tests
then perhaps others, so removing them outright may allow the futex
selftests to build, but I worry stripping them out might cause more
issues down the line for building other selftests with clang, or
regress the build with GCC support even.  But maybe not?

No.

That was my interpretation of your `Tested` tag. Perhaps it can be reworded?

SGTM.  Thanks for pursuing this! ++beers_owed;
