--- Comment #7 from River Tarnell <r.tarnell at IEEE dot ORG> 2011-01-29 23:09:23 UTC --- I don't agree that this is invalid. If objdump is not found, GCC should either generate an error and fail during build, or continue to build but generate correct code, albeit without visibility support. Building and silently generating incorrect code cannot be right, surely?
