There was a time where this debate was bigger. It seems the world has shifted towards architectures and tooling that does not allow dynamic linking or makes it harder. This compromise makes it easier for the maintainers of the tools / languages, but does take away choice from the user / developer. But maybe that’s not important? What are your thoughts?
I would not agree with the “only serious attempt” path. The problem that most other libc are not drop in replacements has little to do with standard compliance and a lot to do with the fact that software is so glued to glibc behavior that you would have to be bug for bug compatible to achieve that goal, which imo is not only unrealistic, it’s also very undesirable.
