> The only reason Alpine is binary-compatible with GNU+Linux is that GNU+Linux is libre.
Please learn or check before spreading that kind of stuff.
Alpine is *not* binary-compatible with *-linux-gnu.
Binaries targeting glibc specifically typically doesn't works on Alpine and gcompat is way too incomplete and likely won't be complete because of the way GNU doesn't specifies it's extensions. In fact GNU kind of fails at binary compatibility with itself:

You can have *-linux-* native binaries that work on both though, Go binaries for example typically do.
