Since it always fails you can just remove the function completely.
If taken to the logical conclusion, this has a ripple effect and is not
suitable for backporting:
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-08/msg00119.html>
So I had to stop somewhere, and I think the patch from last week is a
reasonable compromise for backports and the 2.20 release.
