------- Additional Comments From danglin at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-03-19 16:15 ------- What I was trying to indicate in the previous comment is that aliases can be created on targets that don't support ASM_OUTPUT_DEF by emitting the labels at the same time as the target label.
This happens in the case of thunk functions on hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.11 where we have a local label for the thunk function as well as the normal function label. I believe that we were previously doing this for aliases that didn't yet have a non-external definition for the target. It would seem that when -funit-at-a-time is specified that it might always be possible to emit the label for the alias together with the label for the target. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20524
