If that were the case, you never would have had any problems, since
musl does not define it.

It should be simply:

#if defined(_BSD) || (defined(IRIS4D) && __STDC__) || #defined(__lucid)

BSDWAIT (union wait instead of int) is available as a legacy
compatibility interface on glibc, but it's not desirable to use it,
much less necessary. Fixing this would eliminate the need for a
special-case excluding android, too.
