I suppose this is something you use, rather than a feature you noticed
was not present?

Please not that way. Would you mind doing it by way of llist/dlist?
I say this because sys/queue.h is not part of POSIX, but rather a BSD
header (consisting entirely of macros).
And since it's BSD, it has a 3-clause BSD license.
So musl does not include this header due to a policy that all headers
should be public domain, and I imagine that Rob would not like to add a
3-clause header that duplicates the llist/dlist code (in llist.c).
