Hi,
I've tried to compile proftpd 1.3.3d
I've found two minor issues in musl and two in proftpd

strcasecmp and strncasecmp in string.h
do not require _GNU_SOURCE (according to linux manpage)
only strchrnul requires it

syslog.h misses some defines, in this case:


#define LOG_PRIMASK 0x07    /* mask to extract priority part (internal) */
#define LOG_FACMASK 0x03f8  /* mask to extract facility part */

maybe also others

Regards
