Can you clarify? Do you mean asm/unistd.h? musl does not use it to
provide sys/syscall.h. I suppose it's possible that some applications
are including asm/unistd.h rather than sys/syscall.h (is there a code
search that could check this for us?) but my experience has been that
they use the latter, and I don't think there's much we can do about
the former, at least not from our side.
