Build of x86_64-windows-musl on WSL ubuntu

I tried to build x86_64-windows-musl with mcpu = native on WSL-ubuntu on Windows 11 Pro. I cloned the repo on branch master at commit 1dc1fa6a1.
The command line for the build was: ./build x86_64-windows-musl native

The zig exec at the WSL ubuntu host was created, but it failed to compile a test .c file given it by CMake.
Here is the error printed:

  is not able to compile a simple test program.

  It fails with the following output:

this should compile error afaik. musl is not a valid abi for windows

edit: this this the whole log? not sure from this if it's zig's or clang's fault the error wasn't more clear
