I'm not familiar with the norms surrounding use of this macro, but it's
generally better to test features than versions... what if this feature
gets backported into some distro's earlier-version-numbered glibc?

FWIW, it looks like QEMU went with the feature test approach:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/qemu-devel/patch/20241011054806.1014276-1-raj.khem@xxxxxxxxx/
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/qemu-devel/patch/20241011193140.1047648-1-raj.khem@xxxxxxxxx/

Also, was that patch posted anywhere?  Just wondering if I've still got
problems with email filtering.
