[Bug libc/6650] New: glibc-2.8 does not include creat64() on alpha

["vapier at gentoo dot org" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

the current code base assumes that all 64bit ports provide __NR_creat.  this is
done by sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64/creat64.c being a stub which means
the previous symbol location in io/creat64.c is not used.  other 64bit ports use
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/wordsize-64/syscalls.list to make creat64 an alias to
the creat function, thus overriding the io/creat.c file.  since alpha lacks
__NR_creat, the creat line in syscalls.list is ignored, leaving alpha with
io/creat.o declaring creat (and not creat64), and io/creat64.o declaring no
symbols at all.
