[IP-] [  ] sys-libs/glibc-2.19:2.2

Did not try with glibc 2.18, but suspect equally broken. ( somebody commented as such on #458326 ). 

> Portage 2.2.10 (default/linux/amd64/13.0, gcc-4.8.2, glibc-2.19, 3.13.5-gentoo x86_64)

I considered making this a blocker on #486268 , but I didn't due to not testing 5.18 directly.

i am on AMD64 stable ... i get 3.8.1 by default, which exposes the same problem. 3.9.0 emerges fine after keywording it ... please stabilize
