The patch isn't right and you misunderstood the problem.
The problem is not to have a function prctl(). The problem is to use
this non-standard name for the implementation of some standard
functionality.
It is perfectly fine for all platforms to define. And you must not
remove prctl from the export list. And it is not necessary to protect
the __prctl prototype with libc_hidden_def since it doesn't get
exported. And you mustn't put anything like you did in <sys/prctl.h>.
I think the patch I've added should work fine.
