    build: use -fcommon to retain legacy behaviour with GCC 10
    
    GCC 10 started using -fno-common by default, which causes issues with
    the powerpc builds using gibc 2.27. A patch was commited to glibc to fix
    the issue, 18363b4f010da9ba459b13310b113ac0647c2fcc but is non-trvial
    to backport, and was broken in at least one way, see the followup in
    commit 7650321ce037302bfc2f026aa19e0213b8d02fe6.
    
    For now, retain the legacy GCC behaviour by passing -fcommon when
    building glibc.

    This patch can be dropped when we are building with glibc 2.31+.
