Hello - I'm interested in packaging xfsdump for alpine linux. However,
alpine uses musl libc and I had to change a lot of things to get xfsdump
to build. Mostly it was changing types that are specific to glibc (i.e.
stat64 -> stat). I'm not much of a c programmer myself so I am likely
misunderstanding some things, but changing these types allows xfsdump to
compile and function on musl libc. xfsdump still compiles on Debian with
this patch too.
Would the maintainers of xfsdump be interested in this patch? It's >4000
lines so I'm not sure of the right way to send it. It's available in the
following merge request, and linked directly.

Thanks for your time,
