I wonder if cosmopolitan libc[0] could be leveraged to create an actually portable executableâ„¢ without a rewrite, looks like someone has figured out compiling python 3.11.4 with it[1]

I have a small/insane project of mine, I wrote a compiler for Python (strict and static subset only) to WebAssembly (bc-to-bc approach, 1:1 CPython compat due to walking internals), than I do wasm2c to sandbox it + pledge and compiling with cosmopolitan into a miniature standalone thing (fast as hell). Just because you have zero dependencies and it's a pure Python and properly typed, lemme try next weekend as PoC. No promises, but this message clicked in my heart
