Ah, very good!

I have no idea whether this is good news or bad news ;-)

In https://github.com/norov/glibc/commit/351b8728fdb365bd4852ac113601ddf38153fdfc
I see that you are passing __IPC_64, I thought we had already resolved
that in the kernel. We might need to go back to this.

In https://github.com/norov/glibc/commit/5d4290435e428267171ece871539b76e1d079d11
you are defining a struct __kernel_stat64 in the glibc. Is this the expected
way to do it? I would have thought you'd get the definition from the kernel
headers.
