I did that because at least 30 packages (and probably more if we check 
all the logs) fail to build because this symbol is missing. Moreover, 
amd64 has this symbols:

[farad:~]$ objdump -T /lib/libc.so.6 | grep sys_err
0000000000000000 l    d  .gnu.warning.sys_errlist       0000000000000000
0000000000223fe0 g    DO .data  00000000000003f0  GLIBC_2.3   sys_errlist
0000000000223fe0 g    DO .data  00000000000003e8 (GLIBC_2.2.5) _sys_errlist
0000000000223fe0 g    DO .data  00000000000003f0  GLIBC_2.3   _sys_errlist
0000000000223fe0 g    DO .data  00000000000003e8 (GLIBC_2.2.5) sys_errlist

So I think we need that.

I'll do that in the next upload, probably this night.
