Thanks. I don't see anything obviously wrong in the trace or verbose output. Unless /lib is where you have musl installed (which doesn't seem to be the case, the -L /lib/. probably should not be there, but it doesn't seem related to the problem. Have you run the file command and/or readelf -a on libc.so as a sanity check? Perhaps something about the toolchain or existing wrapper messed up the link of libc.so. Rich
