We have recently (just today) added support for: * Building cross-toolchains with the musl C library, through what we call the "internal toolchain backend" (i.e Buildroot builds the cross compilation toolchain) * Using pre-existing musl cross-toolchains, as provided from musl.codu.org, through what we call the "external toolchain backend" (i.e Buildroot does not build the cross compilation toolchain, and relies on a pre-existing one). Both of these features will be part of the upcoming 2014.05 release. As part of this effort, we will be adding in the future a musl configuration to our autobuilders (http://autobuild.buildroot.org) which will lead to a fairly heavy testing of musl, as the 1200+ packages of Buildroot will be built against it. There are chances that we might be reporting some issues related to this testing.
