Title:
  Snap applications segfault with new core20 (rev: 1015+)

Status in snap-core20:
  New
Status in Snapcraft:
  Fix Released
Status in glibc package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in glibc source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in glibc source package in Groovy:
  Fix Released
Status in glibc source package in Hirsute:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * Core20 snap built with updated glibc crashes snaps also bundling
  glibc.

  [Test Plan]

  * Build core20 snap with glibc in focal-proposed. Test a snap (which
  is not core20) bundling glibc:

  TODO: install locally built core20? 
  snap install test-snapd-rsync-core20 --edge
  snap run test-snapd-rsync-core20.rsync

  [Where problems could occur]

  * The previous glibc update (2.31-0ubuntu9.3) had a fix (LP: #1914044)
  that broke snaps bundling a previous version of glibc
  (2.31-0ubuntu9.2) due to them being incompatible. The fix of LP:
  #1914044 is reverted and 2.31-0ubuntu9.4 does not include changes
  incompatible with 2.31-0ubuntu9.2, thus the crash should not occur. No
  problems are expected.

  [Original Bug Text]
  It seems that with our new core20 in the beta channel all snaps seem to be segfaulting. We recently had a new glibc landed in focal-updates - might be related.
