The glibc build is almost certainly buggy and reliable on things GCC does 
not guarantee.

The options you quote don't include -fno-unit-at-a-time.  glibc should be 
using this option (or, better, -fno-toplevel-reorder with newer GCC) to 
compile this file; I don't know how you configured it not to use this 
option.  glibc's configure tests for and should have detected 
-fno-toplevel-reorder support.
