The stacktrace shows clearly the top-of-stack being a function in LIBC6. As such, closing INVALID coreutils, and opening a new task on glibc.

Don't do this, unless you are certain that the cause for this is in glibc. Just showing "the top-of-stack being a function in LIBC6" is not a reason at all.
