Build script fails on Alpine / muslibc

[chrysn]

When building on Alpine (which is muslibc based), building Rust based RIOT applications fails:

  --- stderr

Reproducing

I've tested this inside the container set up per immunant/c2rust#724 with maribu's resolution (RUSTFLAGS=-Ctarget-feature=-crt-static cargo install --locked c2rust) with an extra of (the former is generally needed for RIOT, the latter target specific and make would have told us later anyway):

$ apk add git gcc-arm-none-eabi newlib-arm-none-eabi
$ rustup target add thumbv7em-none-eabihf

Then run (ideally after RIOT-OS/RIOT#18904 is in, or apply it manually):

$ make -C examples/rust-hello-world BOARD=microbit-v2

Towards fixing

When switching riot-sys's bindgen dependency to /static (btw, we don't really use the default features it seems...), the build script instead segfaults in a way similar to rust-lang/rust-bindgen#2333:

error: failed to run custom build command for `riot-sys v0.7.9 (/tmp/riot-sys)`

Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `/tmp/RIOT/examples/rust-hello-world/bin/microbit-v2/target/release/build/riot-sys-1835746e88917b5e/build-script-build` (signal: 11, SIGSEGV: invalid memory reference)
