gcompat is roughly the "yeah the plugs look the same so just stick the 120 V device into the 240 V socket" approach to libc compatibility.

that's running it directly on musl. gcompat is more like a passive adapter which works except you need to know if the device you're plugging in actually supports 240V, which most stuff does nowadays but when it doesn't it explodes horribly.
