Subject: [musl] Why does musl require another libc to be built (noob question)

Lately I=E2=80=99ve been trying to cross compile musl with clang. It=E2=80=
=99s been a
really interesting process and everyone on this list has been really
helpful.

I hope this isn=E2=80=99t too much of a silly question, but there=E2=80=99s=
 a missing piece
to my understanding of the standard library and that is why you need
another libc to build it. I assumed that it is a self contained thing,
everything else depends on it.

I=E2=80=99m sure there are very good reasons for needing another standard l=
ibrary
to build musl, but I=E2=80=99m not sure what they are and if anyone could l=
et me
know that would greatly appreciated.

Thanks
