libc/glibc: both glibc and eglibc have pkgversion and bugurl

Well, all eglibc version we support do, and latest glibc versions
we support do.

Not all glibc versions do, but older versions simply ignore the
unrecognised ./configure flags.

     1 	With latest versions of glibc, a lot of apps failed on a PaX enabled
     2 	system with:
     3 		 cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
     4 	
     5 	This is due to PaX 'exec-protecting' the stack, and ld.so then trying
     6 	to make the stack executable due to some libraries not containing the
     7 	PT_GNU_STACK section.  Bug #32960.  <azarah@gentoo.org> (12 Nov 2003).
     8 
     9 	Patch also NPTL. Bug #116086. <kevquinn@gentoo.org> (20 Dec 2005).
