somebody talked about this in 2015, see
https://www.openwall.com/lists/musl/2015/02/18/2
for the previous discussion.
i understand in this case it's proposed a little different-
"reusing freestanding parts" as opposed to building a whole libc.so, but in
that case you could most likely patch this in when reusing it standalone only?
it doesn't seem a good idea for it to be there, in general.
