------- Additional Comments From pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-02-26 01:24 ------- Hmm, from the elf spec: If different visibility attributes are specified for distinct references to or definitions of a symbol, the most constraining visibility attribute must be propagated to the resolving symbol in the linked object. The attributes, ordered from least to most constraining, are: STV_PROTECTED, STV_HIDDEN and STV_INTERNAL.
So is this really a binutils bug and not a gcc one? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20218
