Not only that, but zig makes linking against old glibc versions easy. For example, to make an x86_64 linux build linked against glibc 2.9 when using zig build all you have to do is pass:

  -Dtarget=x86_64-linux-gnu.2.9

Damn, that's a magnificent feature! Maybe I should have another look at Zig...
Hi, why is this feature interesting/important? (Coming from [uneducated] webdeveloper with interest for systems/embedded programming)
This is a killer feature for CTFs/OSCP/etc and why I started using it.
