A few weeks back, I spotted in the Musl FAQ that they apparently ship empty libm.a and libpthread.a files (https://www.musl-libc.org/faq.html), which they said was for POSIX compatibility. A bit of digging got me to http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/c99.html which says: > It is unspecified whether the libraries libc.a, libl.a, libm.a, libpthread.a, > librt.a, [OB] [Option Start] libtrace.a, [Option End] libxnet.a, or liby.a > exist as regular files. The implementation may accept as -l option-arguments > names of objects that do not exist as regular files. So to follow the letter of the law, we only need to have the "c99" command accept these; however, it appears all Linux and BSD cstdlibs accept them no matter what compliance mode is in effect. Discussed with PulkoMandy. This will make HaikuPorts' job a lot easier...
