The weak default function arch__normalize_symbol_name() simply returns
its parameter, so norm can be a NULL ptr when parameter sym->name is a
NULL pointer.
However when sym->name is a NULL pointer (or can be one) then the
Powerpc version of arch__normalize_symbol_name() dereferences a NULL
ptr (by checking the symbol's first character is a '.').

if strndup() returns a NULL pointer (due to lack of memory)
then variable norm is a NULL ptr and strglobmatch() --> __match_glob()
derefenences that NULL pointer (1. parameter).
