The current release is gettext 0.21. And its gnulib tests fail in the
same way [1].
On the other hand, on an Ubuntu 14.04.6 (armhf) system, gettext 0.21
works perfectly fine.

You need an interactive system, preferrably with gdb on it.
The preferred way to debug such test failures is to create a testdir
for the modules:
$ ./gnulib-tool --create-testdir --dir=/tmp/testdir --single-configure
strerror_r perror
transfer it to the target system, and there run
$ ./configure && make && make check
then
$ gdb gltests/strerror_r
and
$ gdb gltests/perror2

It has not been reported except in Fedora.
