Huh. I wonder if this is intended. Surely the malloc
implementation in
elf/dl-minimal.c should always call the __libc_memalign implementation
in the same file?
Thanks,

Please have a look at the other localplt.data files, e.g.
sysdeps/x86_64/localplt.data:
# The dynamic loader uses __libc_memalign internally to allocate aligned
# TLS storage. The other malloc family of functions are expected to
allow
# user symbol interposition.
ld.so: __libc_memalign + RELA R_X86_64_GLOB_DAT
All contains the __libc_memalign relocation.
On s390x it has also existed before but a plt-stub was used. If you now
use the compiler flag -fno-optimize-sibling-calls you'll get the
plt-stub as before. With this optimization the relocation is done via a
function pointer.
