The glibc stub resolver did not support these hooks, but the header file
did not reflect that.
+* For multi-arch support it is recommended to use a GCC which has
+ been built with support for GNU indirect functions. This ensures
+ that correct debugging information is generated for functions
+ selected by IFUNC resolvers. This support can either be enabled by
+ configuring GCC with '--enable-gnu-indirect-function', or by
+ enabling it by default by setting 'default_gnu_indirect_function'
+ variable for a particular architecture in the GCC source file
+ 'gcc/config.gcc'.
