snmalloc-rs: removal of libc dependency breaks compilation on systems with older libc
As reported upstream in https://github.com/microsoft/snmalloc/issues/328
snmalloc needs a fix for older libc versions that dont have a getentropy function.
While upgrading snmalloc-rs from 0.2.26 to 0.2.27 we broke our builds as we need to build on an old libc system (2.17 to be exact) (don ask). While 0.2.26 brought its own libc, which was more up to date than the system one, compilation succeeded.
With 0.2.27 we now depend on the system libc, which broke our build.
I am working on a fix for upstream snmalloc to work on older libc systems, but wanted to report this to you anyways.
