You guys should hop on #musl (Freenode IRC) and talk to the musl devs.
They're very interested in extending the arch coverage, especially to
noMMU; some noMMU archs are already perfectly supported - I don't know the
details because I'm no expert, but I'm fairly sure musl is a valid choice
for a good number of targets, and it's rapidly evolving.
