New discovery. the fakeroot/coreutils bug manifests itself on archlinux as well. I'm pretty sure archlinux, debian and ubuntu will bump into this sooner or later.

maybe it is not related gnulib after all?

except that arch linux ppl cannot reproduce it when they build fakeroot package on their systems. (kernel 6.9)

I was able to reproduce it in arch linux in docker. so maybe coreutils started to use a new syscall, not available in 6.6.y kernels, and the fallback triggers this?
