it seems warn(0) and err(1,0) segfault
(they should handle fmt==0 before passing
it to vfprintf)
and they do not print the ': ' nor the
__progname

(perror works correctly)

test program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <err.h>
int main()
{
 warn("warntest");
 warn(0);
 perror("perrortest");
 perror("");
 perror(0);
}


$ gcc err.c && ./a.out
a.out: warntest: Success
a.out: Success
perrortest: Success
Success
Success

$ musl-gcc err.c && ./a.out
warntestNo error information
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
