The Homebrew's Glibc has been installed with the following executables:
    $HOMEBREW_PREFIX/opt/glibc/bin/ldd
    $HOMEBREW_PREFIX/opt/glibc/bin/ld.so
    $HOMEBREW_PREFIX/opt/glibc/sbin/ldconfig

By default, Homebrew's linker will not search for the system's libraries. If you
want Homebrew to do so, run:

    cp "$HOMEBREW_PREFIX/etc/ld.so.conf.d/99-system-ld.so.conf.example" "$HOMEBREW_PREFIX/etc/ld.so.conf.d/99-system-ld.so.conf"
    brew postinstall glibc

to append the system libraries to Homebrew's ld search paths. This is risky and
**highly not recommended**, because it may cause linkage to Homebrew libraries
mixed with system libraries.
