it wont work.  whatever C library you build against, you need that ABI.  
function calls are not the only thing that is part of the ABI, there is also 
fun things like structures, macros that turn public names into private ones, 
etc...

gcc itself tends to change behavior based on the C library you're building 
against (locale handling, magic symbols, etc...)
