I'm not the best one for doing testing, as I don't have any previous code based on musl, and moreover, my way of using it is going to be non-obvious/marginal, as I'm working in being OS-independent, as I wrote in the list months ago. There's a possibility that I end up combining code from newlib and musl, but that's not certain at this moment (the only certain thing for the moment is that musl has everything I need, including a complete ELF dynamic linker/loader, and that newlib follows the approach I want -syscall isolation- but it's less complete and has no linker/loader). So, I need to dig deeply at building both libraries, and finding my way during the process. Said this, I'm starting my efforts through an Alpine Linux VM (for obvious reasons, as musl is default there, and llvm is also there, which is the compiler suite I use), so I'll be happy to test in that VM any 1.1.20 release candidates you prepare, although I assume that Alpine will be a platform for which you'll have testers already.
