Description

using docker image [centos 6.8](https://hub.docker.com/layers/library/centos/6.8/images/sha256-82f3b5f3c58f22e50d6b05f227c675af504cffc9dff7e318df5fc40faee6410e?context=explore)
and julia 1.7.1 official binary, a hello-world package with only one file in src/:
```
module HW
function hw()::Cint
print("hello, world!")
return 0
end
end
```

The compiled binary will hang in the image. However, copy it to something like ubuntu 20.04, and it works just fine.

Research direction

Reproduce the hello-world package compilation with the Julia 1.7.1 official binary in the CentOS 6.8 Docker image, then compare its behavior with Ubuntu 20.04. Investigate why the compiled binary hangs on CentOS 6.8; done means the compiled application runs there while preserving the working behavior on Ubuntu.
