That's precisely why I'm trying to get away from Apple.

Thanks for the pointer, that turned out to be the problem.
I should mention that I am cross-compiling from macOS. Since I had a
Linux VM flying around, I tried to build musl there (success) and
compared the logs.
Looking at config.mak, there apparently was a serious misconfiguration:
config.mak on the cross-build system (macOS):
CFLAGS_AUTO = -include vis.h
CFLAGS_C99FSE =
CFLAGS_MEMOPS =
CFLAGS_NOSSP =
LDFLAGS_AUTO =
LIBCC =
config.mak on Ubuntu:
CFLAGS_AUTO = -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-unwind-tables
-fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections
-Werror=implicit-function-declaration -Werror=implicit-int
-Werror=pointer-sign -Werror=pointer-arith -include vis.h
CFLAGS_C99FSE = -std=c99 -nostdinc -ffreestanding
-fexcess-precision=standard -frounding-math -Wa,--noexecstack
CFLAGS_MEMOPS = -fno-tree-loop-distribute-patterns
CFLAGS_NOSSP = -fno-stack-protector
LDFLAGS_AUTO = -Wl,--sort-section,alignment -Wl,--sort-common
-Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--hash-style=both -Wl,--no-undefined
-Wl,--exclude-libs=ALL -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions
LIBCC = -lgcc -lgcc_eh
After adding the missing flags (except the seemingly unused -lgcc_eh),
the build succeeded on macOS.
I'm not sure if this can be fixed cleanly by passing appropriate
arguments to configure or if the script should be patched. My
experience with configure scripts is limited, but I will try to look
further into what went wrong exactly.
