[llvm-dev] libc implementation for the llvm project

Hello all,
I am curious if there are plans to implement a libc (not libc++ which
already exists) under the umbrella of the llvm project.
glibc is crufty and bloated, musl is not as fast as glibc and not
supported by some software.
It would be really nice to see a fresh start, a fast yet lightweight
but still well supported libc; and the llvm project seems to be a good
candidate to tackle this.

Kind regards
