You’re welcome.

Hmm. POSIX says:

     If the value of fd is less than 0, events shall be ignored, and
     revents shall be set to 0 in that entry on return from poll().

musl says they strictly follow POSIX. Might be a bug?
Probably best to ask there. http://musl.libc.org/ links to IRC and
a mailing list. I checked their known issues list, but poll doesn’t
show up there.
