    <para>The musl package contains the main C library. This library provides
    the basic routines for allocating memory, searching directories, opening and
    closing files, reading and writing files, string handling, pattern matching,
    arithmetic, and so on.  We build it again here so that it can be installed
    into our targetfs sysroot but this time we only build the shared object
    version.</para>
