[Bug 1572569] [NEW] Relocation error in libc.so.6

[Kalle Tuulos]

Public bug reported:

The complete error message is as follows:
./testapp: relocation error: ./testapp: symbol __get_cpu_features, version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference

The "testapp" has been compiled in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS server with Free
Pascal to 64bit executable. The executable doesn't have anything Free
Pascal specific and it works fine in other Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and 15.10
computers. I verified this by running the executable in a fresh-
installed 15.10 virtual computer, which did not have anything Free
Pascal related installed.

Now I copied the executable into 16.04 LTS (release candidate) computer
and tried to run it, but it gives the above mentioned error message.
