Okay, thanks.

I find it useful as individual and professional, but of course the
decisions to promote it are only up to me as an individual. For anything
else I must ask.

I know about this one. I read this somewhere on some mailing list
before, when I was searching for Clang support and found that there was
some mentioning of this fact in the glibc or GCC community, don't
remember exactly. Either way, I was first astonished, but after a second
thought it made perfect sense. Conform to the standards and you needn't
provide crutches.
I guess I'll simply define something on the command line for musl-libc
builds. Currently they are only an option, but eventually they're meant
to replace the glibc ones.
Thanks,
