Another translation unit with the definition of that declared function. As-is, this would not cause any verifier error or backend debug info assertion. Link the two together and now it's a verifier error - and, depending on the contents of the function definition, maybe a backend debug info assertion.

Right - now things that were invalid categorically, are now valid, unless you link them. Which is a bit tricky. Ah well, as you say - it's best effort.
