            Bug ID: 25828
           Summary: nm for pdp11-aout shows symbols undefined or
                    sign-extended to 64 bits
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.35 (HEAD)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: binutils
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: casner at acm dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

Presumably since the creation of the pdp11-aout target 20 years ago, a symbol
defined in a linker script that is referenced as a global variable in a source
file will be shown as undefined by nm:

00000000 T __start
00000000 T _start
00000000 T main
00000000 t pr14962a.o
00000002 t pr14962b.o
00000000 T start
         U x

Separately, symbols with the MSB set will be shown sign-extended to 64 bits,
whereas PDP11 addresses are only 16 bits.

00000000 A DATA_LENGTH
00001000 A DATA_ORIGIN
ffffffffffff8000 A TXT_LENGTH
00000100 A TXT_ORIGIN
00001004 D data_end
00001000 T data_start

00000104 T text_end
00000100 T text_start
00000100 T text_symbol
