UnixLib implements the C standard library and some of the POSIX API.
It gets built into NetSurf, and other RISC OS software built with GCC.

UnixLib turned out to be a red herring. The fault was actually in the
compiler. John-Mark tracked it down, and has fixed it [1] for our
toolchain. He's also sent the fix upstream to the GCCSDK
maintainers [2].

Anyway, you don't have to do anything particular to get the fix, just
run CI build #2911 or later.
