I'm guessing this due to an incompatibility (bug?) in the glibc used
on RedHat 7.3 (we have glibc-2.2.5-44).   The test is failing at line
55 of test-fseeko.c: 

53         if (fseeko (stdin, (off_t) 0, SEEK_END))
54           return 1;
55         if (feof (stdin))
56           return 1;
57       }

The check on line 55 is not returning the expected value, so "1" is
returned on line 56.
