According to Mike Frysinger, this patch was removed from Gentoo in the
2.3.x series and didn't seem to cause any adverse effects. So toss it
from the patch directories for glibc 2.5 and up.

11 The appended patch fixes a typo in a low-level lock function. It
12 set the correct 3rd argument for the futex syscall in loop. Sorry
13 for missing such an embarrassing bug.
