We have also started this with sbase:

Could be that the musl guys don't like a lot of the plan9-style eprintf

stuff could be cherrypicked and adapted to speed development.

autotools will always assume the whole world runs gnu; I recommend
people wanting to run autotools things should be offered a gnu-compat
package or similar that makes gnu garbage available. I would not like
to see their 'embrace and extend' stuff infect any system built by the
musl people.
