It should already be feature-complete for C99, except possibly some bugs in the time stuff I want to overhaul. There are a few things missing for POSIX (some new strftime field width stuff comes to mind), but not much; probably a few more small details for XSI option in the way of interfaces that nobody uses, like encrypt(). And some things missing for C11, of course. > I'll try to get support into aboriginal linux for that release. Great! Yes, this sounds like a good target version for you, especially since I'm hoping to swat a lot more bugs by then (see the hybrid audit item above). It should also give us plenty of time to resolve any issues you encounter using musl with aboriginal between then and musl 1.0 so that everything is really polished when we get to 1.0. Rich
