Even if the user-visible symptoms as described in that bug aren't 
something readily testable in the glibc testsuite (and even if there 
aren't any other symptoms that *can* be tested - you don't discuss that 
question), I'd expect a bug report in glibc Bugzilla for anything being 
fixed that was user-visible at all.
