musl has no problem building and using shared libraries. What you can't do is build something statically with musl and then reliably dlopen shared libraries built with glibc.

Well, now it's possible! Furthermore, SoLo binaries can run, without modification, on glibc-based distros, alpine, and soon on android/bionic (not committed yet).

  Only on current glibc distributions. Your SoLo-program WILL break on future distributions. This is not a sensible tradeoff.

    Who says it is not a sensible tradeoff? It may be a much better tradeoff than not being able to run it at all.

    Any software WILL break on future distributions, sooner or later.
