This recipe:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Testing/Builds#Compile_normally.2C_run_under_new_glibc
appears to describe a method that could be used without changing the system libc.

@wumpus Many thanks for suggesting this.
Unfortunately the recipe above is pretty fragile and leads to many other possible issues as we often don't know what other capabilities of libc might be required by the code that ends up running inside the MATLAB process. Thus we strongly prefer to use the libc on the system.
