looking more into this error by selinux userspace tools(libselinux),
seems there was a change in libc which breaks libselinux.

I've started the bisect with libc but could not go any further because
libc fails to build. The positive side is I'm only about 15 or so 
commits from the last good commit I had, which gets libselinux to build.

heres the last bad commit and last good commit with libc(I'm trying to 
narrow this down, but libc breaks).

last bad commit: 7b4715c5362319e1ff2f9555d17133146e16081a
(bisect is broken by this point).

last good commit: d5ea695b42aecd48a329756a8e93228d64714d17

I added some CC's to hopefully the appropriate
people.

As a workaround I can compile libselinux with the last good commit,
then update libc, but know that's not the right way.
