I would not describe it as "musl does not have C++ support". Rather,
musl is not an implementation of the C++ stdlib (and neither is
glibc), but that just means you use whichever C++ stdlib you want with
it (GCC's libstdc++ or the llvm-associated libc++).

It sounds like something is wrong with your setup for making the
toolchain target musl. Repurposing an existing toolchain that's
pulling in library and include dirs from whatever your existing host
libc is (presumably glibc) is hard to get right. See below:

The compiler should not produce style warnings for macros expanded
from system headers, but I believe this is a known clang misfeature.
In any case this one is just a warning.

No idea how O_CREAT was defined but O_TRUNC and O_APPEND were not.
This sounds like either perlio.h failed to include fcntl.h and
something else provided a fallback definition of O_CREAT, or you have
a corrupted installation of the musl headers.

This code is trying to poke at glibc FILE structure internals and is
invalid. Depending on what it's trying to do there may or may not be a
valid way to achieve the same thing.
