(the commit adding the slim variant) gives more info.

It is also not clear to me exactly when the slim format support was
added to glibc, but as additional datapoints, I have it working with a
2.30 based toolchain built by 2020.02.x and a 2.31 based one built by
2020.11.x.


 > So, what I suggest we do:

 >   - for maintenance branches: unconditionally revert to fat.

Sounds sensible. Please do it in 2 patches, E.G. first use fat
everywhere, and then as a followup patch change to slim for internal
glibc.
