Glibc 2.33 removed `_STAT_VER`. On host machines, which updated to glibc
2.33, building host-fakeroot breaks:
```
In file included from communicate.h:20,
from libfakeroot.c:60:
libfakeroot.c: In function ‘chown’:
libfakeroot.c:99:40: error: ‘_STAT_VER’ undeclared (first use in this function)
99 | #define INT_NEXT_STAT(a,b) NEXT_STAT64(_STAT_VER,a,b)
```
The issue has been discussed on some package maintainer threads, e.g.:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/69572
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=
1889862#c13
A patch series was prepared by Ilya Lipnitskiy which included two other
patches not related to the glibc 2.33 compatibility issue and submitted as
merge request for upstream:
https://www.mail-archive.com/openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org/msg57280.html
Upstream accepted the merge request:
https://salsa.debian.org/clint/fakeroot/-/merge_requests/10
Note, that this patch series only contains the necessay patches for glibc
2.33 compatibility.
Tested on my Arch Linux machine, building a UBIFS/OverlayFS-based root
filesystem for an i.MX6ULL target board.

+Subject: [PATCH] configure.ac: fix __xmknod{,at} pointer argument
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Switch default to assume * and not the absence of *.
+
+On glibc 2.33+, there is no definition for these functions in header
+files, so the compile test doesn't work. But, we can default to using
+the pointer (as is the case with newer glibc), and use the header file
+on older platforms to fail the test and use no pointer.
