I've begun looking at the file format again and it seems simple
enough.

Haven't looked at these yet.

I'm guessing we may still have some issues here with mysql and perhaps
Apache. The other components work, I believe..

Aside from the soft-float kernel issue, it sounds like OpenWRT is
working. Is this true?

As far as I know, these are working. Am I right?

No idea.

Has anybody built LLVM/clang on musl? I believe the set of patches
needed for GDB has been reduced quite a bit now, but I'm not sure what
the status on strace is...

What issues are remaining here? This is probably the single most
important compatibility problem we've got.

No idea.

My understanding is that QEMU is working now, with minimal or no
patching. Is this right?

Haven't experimented with it at all yet.

Unless there have been regressions, this stuff should all be working,
but it would be nice to check.

Reports would be very helpful.
