these functions return an error code..
in this case they must return -1 and set errno to EILSEQ,
since the selected multibyte encoding (LC_CTYPE=C) cannot
represent the printed wide characters.
i think the musl behaviour is correct, you can try adding
setlocale(LC_CTYPE,"") at the start of main to make it work.
