I've now committed the patch. If anyone wishes to fix bugs in this area,
just pick one of the XFAILs for the new linknamespace tests, look at the
.out file, file a bug in Bugzilla and fix it (which will probably result
in removing several XFAILs, not just one) - or test on an architecture
other than x86_64 and fix any failures not marked XFAIL (it's quite likely
there are some such architecture-specific bugs, like the x86_64 rawmemchr
one I fixed).
