Thanks, I wasn't able to access the build log so I didn't see this.

I tested upstream with Linux 5.3 headers, and klibc doesn't use glibc,
so it's unlikely to be either of those.

The best guess I can come up with is that there's something different
about the compiler defaults you're using that causes "objcopy -O binary"
to not include static data in the output.  objcopy itself probably isn't
the difference as Debian unstable and Ubuntu eoan seem to have the same
version of binutils.

(But I wonder whether the objcopy is even necessary. syscalls.pl doesn't
require the magic number to be at the beginning of the file, so
presumably it would also work with a regular ELF object file.)
