Ah OK good to know.

Maybe it would be worth considering pselect() or equivalent which
involve many arguments. I don't know if rv32 has fstatat() or
lstat() for example, that could be used as alternatives ?

With that said, if rv32 is missing some essential syscalls, my question
regarding its relevance here still holds!
