- Allow up to 32 dlopened modules to use static TLS (#1124987).
- Run glibc tests in %%check section of RPM spec file.
- Do not run tests with `-k` and fail if any test fails to build.

#
# This is an experimental patch that should go into rawhide and
# Fedora 21 to fix failures where python applications fail to
# load graphics applications because of the slot usages for TLS.
# This should eventually go upstream.

+ 14, but problems with python, MESA, and X11's uses of static TLS meant
+ that most distributions were very close to this limit when they loaded
+ dynamically interpreted languages that used graphics. The simplest
+ solution was to roughly double the number of slots. The actual static
+ image space usage was relatively small, for example in MESA you
+ had only two dispatch pointers for a total of 16 bytes. If we hit up
+ against this limit again we should start a campaign with the
+ distributions to coordinate the usage of static TLS. Any user of this
+ resource is effectively coordinating a global resource since this
+ surplus is allocated for each thread at startup. */
