I suspect you already had C_INCLUDE_PATH in your environment and gcc
was finding /usr/include via that despite the musl-gcc wrapper
suppressing the default. You should unset C_INCLUDE_PATH, or if you
really need to set it, ensure that any non-musl include paths (e.g.
/usr/include) do not appear in C_INCLUDE_PATH or any -I, etc.

It's not clear to me whether the musl-gcc wrapper should try to do
anything to suppress C_INCLUDE_PATH, since you might want it for
adding intended paths when invoking the wrapper. Maybe it could be
enhanced to remove known-bad pathss but that seems fragile.

This is probably just a bug in the application. You could run it under
gdb to see. Are you using static or dynamic linking? I thought you
wanted static but I don't see -static in your command line above.
