This is a good find. Assuming that allocators are but one of the "external" functions that LLVM libc will provide, I think we should have a scalable solution for this. So, may be add a new cmake rule called `add_external_entrypoint` which does nothing but create a dummy target that can be listed in places like `entrypoints.txt`?

Comment at: libc/src/string/strdup.cpp:24
+  size_t len = internal::string_length(src) + 1;
+  char *newStr = reinterpret_cast<char *>(::malloc(len)); // NOLINT
+  if (newStr == nullptr) {

This is a C library implementation. So, the style should be `snake_case` for variable names. Or, you can completely avoid this conundrum by renaming the `src` to `old` and `newStr` to `str`.
