Based on glibc 2.33 -> 2.34, there is one new feature:
NEWS for version 2.34 ===================== Major new features: * Add _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ and _SC_SIGSTKSZ. When _DYNAMIC_STACK_SIZE_SOURCE or _GNU_SOURCE are defined, MINSIGSTKSZ and SIGSTKSZ are no longer constant on Linux. MINSIGSTKSZ is redefined to sysconf(_SC_MINSIGSTKSZ) and SIGSTKSZ is redefined to sysconf (_SC_SIGSTKSZ). This supports dynamic sized register sets for modern architectural features like Arm SVE.

Please give more context on why this change is needed?
Doesn't look like you tried to compile this patch before sending this to me.
