Yes, you're linking to glibc, or to something that was linked with
glibc. You should look though the X11 .so files you've built using
readelf and see if any of them have dependencies on libc.so.6. It
looks like you're using the host system's gcc and passing the
musl-gcc.specs file to it manually rather than using the musl-gcc
script or a real musl-targetted compiler toolchain, so it might be
something to do with that too. Adding -v to the command line and
seeing what gets passed to the linker command could be helpful.
