Thanks for working at this one. The "FIXME" means that there is a chance to create a fix which works with unpatched glibc?
Maybe. I tried to think of some creative solutions, but patching glibc is the easiest and safest. I'm hoping other Wine developers have some ideas.
I would try to resurrect my "wine-staging-lol" PKGBUILD. Do you think statically linking wine to a patched glibc would work?
My guess is that statically linking is generally a poor idea because of all of the other system libraries. I think you should be able to compile a patched glibc and use it when compiling / running wine, e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/a/851229, though I haven't tested that.
