Why are constructors included twice in object code?

This is required by the C++ ABI.

It is, in my opinion, a real bug that gcc does not simply merge
identical constructors.

I agree.

Up until now, I think all of the patches have introduced additional thunks of some kind. Actually giving both names to the same entry point would avoid the ABI problems, and thus be non-controversial. (The ABI explicitly endorses multiple entry points as a solution.)
