that's not the intended usage

RUN_WRAP is for qemu or similar tools for running the binaries

you can specify the libc.so by changing the dynamic-linker name
(at least that's enough in case of musl) or installing the
musl-gcc wrapper/musl based toolchain with different dynamic-linker
name, e.g.

make CC='/path/to/musl/bin/musl-gcc -Wl,-dynamic-linker=/path/to/musl/lib/libc.so'

should work (not tested)

static linked binaries cannot be loaded by libc.so so all *-static.exe
failed to run.
