I don't see why this matters. A symbol that resolves to zero without dynamic
relocs in a PIE or shared lib results in an address of zero. If that zero is
in a PC-relative instruction then you get zero relative to the shared library
or PIE base. Typical code for dealing with weakly defined functions like
if (foo)
foo ();
will give you a load of zero (absolute) on the condition, but a relative zero
for the call.

Define "doesn't work". I would have said that combination of options ought to
result in a dynamic reloc for "func" on the original testcase. Which is what
powerpc will do. It may not work in the runtime environment for static PIE,
but that's a different issue. By passing -z dynamic-undefined-weak you asked
for dynamic relocs!
