Any breakage with -fno-common would be detected at link time, so if your
program compiles successfully it should run successfully.  

The breakage is that some non-strictly conforming programs that declare
variables tentatively with, for example:

        int x;

in multiple translation units will get multiple-definition errors at
link time.
