[Bug libc/5400] New: Assume fdatasync syscall always exists


The fdatasync syscall is present for a very long time in the linux kernel 
(since pre 2.0 kernels) on all architectures except alpha. On this architecture 
it has been recently added to the 2.6.22 kernel.

This causes fdatasync() to fail on a glibc compiled against a 2.6.22 kernel run 
on pre 2.6.22 kernel.

Patch will follow.
