I'm trying to write an ebuild for OSH, which is failing to build because Gentoo has a rotten apple.

So instead of waiting for the damage to glibc to be fully reverted (since I can't downgrade to 2.25-r8), I'd like to install musl somewhere and just tell it to compile against that, maybe statically if necessary. But the musl ebuild throws an error and wants me to set up a full crossdev environment. That seems a bit overkill, is there a simpler way?

What's wrong with chroot?
You can run a script in the environment directly, if you want to automate it.

Upstream bundles Python-2.7.13 with a hardcoded pyconfig.h. Add the line
"#define MAJOR_IN_SYSMACROS 1" somewhere to Python-2.7.13/pyconfig.h and
it probably will compile fine. (If so, please report upstream.)
