Many of these issues have since been fixed or at least changed in
upstream BusyBox. Hopefully fewer changes are needed now...

No, because __musl__ is not defined by musl; it's something added by
Sabotage. The right fix is to find out whether it's musl or BusyBox
doing things wrong and fix one or the other so that things work
without ugly special-casing.
