Ah, I see. The macro 'weak_alias' apparently needs libc-config.h as well.

Yes. I assumed that "config.h" was a typo here, because the #ifndef _LIBC block seems to be fairly common in gnulib.

I now get the same error, but with globfree.c. I am not sure why I didn't need this in my patches…

OK, globfree.c should already have seen libc-config.h via glob.h, so I don't see why it's *not* working.

The precise error I get:

../../lib/globfree.c:40:1: warning: return type defaults to ‘int’ [enabled by default]
 libc_hidden_def (globfree)
 ^
../../lib/globfree.c: In function ‘libc_hidden_def’:

../../lib/globfree.c:40:1: error: expected ‘{’ at end of input
