I did a cursory perusal of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 glibc
bugzilla bugs, and didn't see it mentioned.  If it isn't fixed
upstream (RHEL7) I don't think you can expect to find anything fixed
in CentOS7.

I suggest creating a bug here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?component=glibc&list_id=3113207&order=bug_id%20DESC&product=Red%20Hat%20Enterprise%20Linux%207&query_based_on=&query_format=advanced

and give the glibc upstream bug URL and a way to reproduce the
problem.
