+Subject: [PATCH] {Makefile,util.c}: fix build on musl / uClibc-ng
+
+vsyslog() is not in POSIX, so only exposed by <syslog.h> on musl and
+uclibc-ng if we define _DEFAULT_SOURCE.
+
+https://git.musl-libc.org/cgit/musl/tree/include/syslog.h#n64
+https://cgit.uclibc-ng.org/cgi/cgit/uclibc-ng.git/tree/include/sys/syslog.h#n200
+
+While we are at it, drop the glibc-implementation-specific __USE_MISC define
+in src/util.c to get rid of a double definition:
+
+src/util.c:3: warning: "__USE_MISC" redefined
+    3 | #define __USE_MISC
+      |
+In file included from /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/libc-header-start.h:33,
+                 from /usr/include/stdio.h:27,
+                 from src/util.c:2:
+/usr/include/features.h:395: note: this is the location of the previous definition
+  395 | # define __USE_MISC     1
+
+On glibc (and uClibc-ng) the internal __USE_MISC symbol gets defined if
+_DEFAULT_SOURCE is:
