this change is needed to be compatible with fdpic, where some of the main application's relocations may be performed as part of the crt1 entry point. if we call init functions before passing control, these relocations will not yet have been performed, and the init code will potentially make use of invalid pointers. conceptually, no code provided by the application or third-party libraries should run before the application entry point. the difference is not observable to programs using the crt1 we provide, but it could come into play if custom entry point code is used, so it's better to be doing this right anyway. |

musl libc
musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.
The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.
For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
