At present I havent recievied even a "its your fault" for the email on
headers (which was my fault anyways) or several others, however fwiw I have
moved past those issues.
Everyone I think was overlooking it (understandably so) because they knew
it was a id10t error and were focused on the atomics work coming through.

I just found out about the musl out of tree issue from another member. Not
sure why I would see the same behavior from binutils however. Per the
advice of the other list member im cleaning up my build process by not
specifying the include and lib dir's to see if that in some way helps with
binutils.
Thanks,
