Add a patch to the ageing glibc-2.3.6 to make it compile on stupid shells that have a defective implementation of echo.
Thanks to Willy Tarreau for pointing to the patch.

    10 
    11 On sh[34]-linux, memset function does not work if 2nd argument is negative
    12 and 3rd argument is greater than 12.
    13 for example, memset(ptr, "\xda", 20) sets 0xff instead of 0xda.
    14  
    15 Attached patch fixes this problem.
