In theory there should be no problems when combined with recent enough (don't
recall the date/release) xserver/libglx. Priorly libglx was providing the
symbols, as it was copying a ton of the gl dispatch from mesa. Nowadays it
links against libGL and relies on it to handle things.

On the whole topic I've been leaning towards:
 - folding the static glapi only for special users (osmesa, libgl-xlib)
 - "forcing" everyone else to shared one and dropping the configure switch
 - figuring some deprecation period and/or experimentally adding the libglapi
link to the dri modules.

I'm leaning that foo_dri.so linked with libglapi and old xserver should still
work, although that is to be tested.

All that aside: albeit not ideal, some libraries need to stay underlinked. Musl
devs should seriously reconsider and add support for it.
