In glibc upstream, libio/libio.h had been deprecated for applications and
became internal header in its v2.28 release. We can see below message in
its release note[1].

```
* The nonstandard header files <libio.h> and <_G_config.h> are no longer
  installed.  Software that was using either header should be updated to
  use standard <stdio.h> interfaces instead.
```

I posted PR to fix the FTBFS into github.com repository[1]. (In last month
we introduced github service to our workload for reviewing/merging tasks
just for userspace stuffs.)

In next release (v1.1.7), the fix will be merged and released.
