Ah just recalled I've been carrying such a patch in the Debian package
due to cross-build failures in musl! :) :

  
<https://git.hadrons.org/cgit/debian/pkgs/acl.git/commit/debian/patches?id=78df88d0fcf2e211081dd455a6eea0fb9a5f0a43>

So I'll send that with the reduced code comments. (Will also send the

Thanks,
