Oh well, I thought that that clang was new enough, the system being
Fedora rawhide:
[acme@seventh ~]$ clang -v |& head -1
clang version 12.0.0 (https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project 87369c626114ae17f4c637635c119e6de0856a9a)
I'm now building the single-repo main...
Would you consider a patch for libbpf that would turn this:

Into:
libbpf: failed to find BTF for extern 'tcp_cong_avoid_ai' [27] section: -2
HINT: Please update your clang/llvm toolchain to at least cset abcdef123456
HINT: That is where clang started generating BTF information for extern functions in BPF code.
?
