That was done already (libc version was bumped).  But the part
that wasn't done was bumping all the other libraries that are
dependent on libc, and all libraries that need to be bumped
for symbol versioning to be enabled by default.

For tracking purposes, it's also nice to be able to see all
the libraries being bumped at the same time, so you can see
what is affected and how to do it again.
