Well, indeed, both are not needed. glibc-2.19 is enough, as it does
provide it if not defined by the kernel headers.

And if the kernel headers provide it but not glibc, then it is not
available. (Weird).

glibc-2.18, so too old.

glibc-2.18 too.

That's unfortunately the only sane solution, I'm araid.

But that just for systemd is big a gun... :-/

At the same time, I'm not really happy with patching systemd...

O_TMPFILE is not the same value on all archs: generic, alpha, parisc and
sparc.
