Thanks. This really explains why problem is so hard. It seems that
it's possible to link to glibc, with the issue of non-working name
resolution (which is pluggable in glibc) and dlopen (for obvious
reasons). That would work for me for now.

Still, when you are talking about "system-provided libc", do you mean
that if I would compile Rust on e.g. Alpine linux (which has musl libc
by default), I will be able to link rust program with musl libc
statically?
