I'm not sure how message are getting interleaved, but I would
appreciate it if you would stop reiterating this point.
It's just not true, in general.
C programs that do not use shared libraries built with GCC are
absolutely unaffected. That includes C programs that link with shared
libraries provided by the system vendor.
What won't work is C++ programs built with GCC, or shared libraries
built with GCC -- unless you use -static-libgcc.
