I think that would be considered an unsupported buld configuration
from QEMU's POV. Our platform policy is declared here:

  https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/about/build-platforms.html

and from this policy we decide the minimum versions of libraries
we intend to build against.

Our two oldest build targets are Debian 10 / RHEL 8, both of
which ship with GLibC 2.28.

IOW, trying to build with a sysroot contanining ancient glibc
2.17 is well outside what QEMU intends to support. 2.17 is
from circa 2012.


With regards,
Daniel
