bsd make is not a problem. They are equally dismayed to see GNU make,
so more understanding :)

What is important is how this code (without BSD Makefile) may be
useful for us. FreeBSD has an alternative binutils tools from LLVM
(lld, llvm-as, llvm-ar, llvm-nm, llvm-ranlib, llvm-strings etc.), so
this project can be orphaned. But I see here a chance that it can be
developed as _musl_ subproject and then a lot of things can be done
differently.
