On profiles like default/linux/amd64/17.1/systemd/clang/merged-usr (exp) `glibc`+`clang` provide incomplete set of libraries to be able to link simple executables using printf(). Minimal reproducer: good: # echo -e '#include <stdio.h>\nint main() { printf("printf_address = %p\\n", &printf); }' | clang -x c - -o a && ./a printf_address = 0x7eff78a06420 bad: # echo -e '#include <stdio.h>\nint main() { printf("printf_address = %p\\n", &printf); }' | clang -x c - -o a -static && ./a ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __unordtf2 >>> referenced by printf_fphex.o:(__printf_fphex) in archive /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/12/../../../../lib64/libc.a ... I think this happens because `glibc` is built by `gcc`. `gcc` assumes presence of TF (long double) types and provides external helpers via `libgcc.a`. Looks like `clang` does not provide a substitute in any form in it's runtime. So far I'm stubbing those out as https://github.com/trofi/nix-guix-gentoo/blob/master/sys-apps/busybox-nix-sandbox-shell/files/libgcc-TF-stubs.c. But I think the toolchain should provide something that just works. Be it `glibc` without unsatisfiable symbols, or a `clang` driver` without enough runtime libraries or whatever works.

Thanks, this is a good spot. catcream mentioned this last night but I didn't have a chance to look into it yet. Another thing we can explore is llvm's libgcc set of shims which is quite new.
