yeah the dynamic list entry is needed so the address of the
object internally in the libc is the same as in the main
executable in case of copy relocation (only matters for
dynamic linked executables and pie executable may work
since that does not require copy relocs).

all targets with copy relocs are affected, but only musl
version 1.1.20 has the problem i think.
