Ah, I missed that this is a _runtime_ failure, not a linking failure.
The problem is just that you don't have an /etc/ld-musl-x86_64.path
file, so musl is using the default library paths which are only
suitable for a musl-based system. Create that file and put the paths
to your musl-linked libs there. Or, alternatively, use static linking.
Dynamic linking musl is really not ideal when your system libc is
glibc.
