Hm, opendmarc 1.4.2 builds fine on glibc 2.42

exim can only use opendmarc at this moment and opendmarc is:
* abandoned software, no development/maintenance happens, no maintainer 
(all that for last 3 years)
* full of major bugs (see distros for some important patches)
* violates spec (like 
https://github.com/trusteddomainproject/OpenDMARC/issues/54)

There is no good way of dealing with DMARC on exim unfortunately.
