musl puts strnlen in a separate strnlen.o file. Since linking is done per
object file, and there is no undefined symbol that pulls in strnlen.o (since
strnlen is already defined), it will just use the flashrom version of the function.
uClibc also puts strnlen in a separate object file. However, that object file
also contain the hidden symbol __GI_strnlen which is referred to from other
object files in the archive (e.g. vfprintf). Therefore, strnlen.o will be linked
in and you get a double definition.

Arnout
