Alpine 3.18.3 with musl package musl-1.2.4-r1 x86_64

I don't really know what I'm doing with gdb. This is probably not helpful:
(gdb) bt
#0 0x00007f5fb449c0dd in ?? () from /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1
#1 0x0000000000000002 in ?? ()

I have some patches applied which can be seen here:
http://www.sodface.com/repo/index/aports/althttpd
I applied the same patches to the static glibc build.

>From the althttpd homepage:
Because each althttpd process only needs to service a single
connection, althttpd is single threaded. Furthermore, each process
only lives for the duration of a single connection, which means that
althttpd does not need to worry too much about memory leaks. These
design factors help keep the althttpd source code simple, which
facilitates security auditing and analysis.
