[llvm-dev] ld.lld fails with "undefined symbol: _fopen" on macOS, while working as expected on Linux

Hi,

I'm trying to cross-compile my app.

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
  puts("test");
  fopen("test", "r"); // removing fopen() call removes the error
  return 0;
}

clang -c -target x86_64-linux-gnu test.c

ld.lld -v -o test -m elf_x86_64 -dynamic-linker /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/crt1.o /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/crti.o test.o
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/crtn.o

This works fine on Linux, but when I run the same command on macOS, I get

LLD 8.0.0 (compatible with GNU linkers)
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: _fopen
>>> referenced by fopen.c
>>>               test.o:(main)

I haven't set up --sysroot yet, I just copied all these files from the
Linux machine for now.

This only happens with fopen(). Using puts() or printf() is fine.

LLVM version is 8.0.0.

Thanks!
