Iain,
We have radar Problem ID: 10466868, "-undefined dynamic_lookup linker bug"
open with
your testcase (which I appended below). Do you recall if Nick ever indicated
that this
was recognized a real regression in Xcode 4's linker or if it was unsupported
behavior on
darwin that happened to work with the linker on prior Xcode releases? Also,
perhaps we
can find someone with access to the Xcode 4.3 pre-release so they can check if
this is
fixed yet.

Summary: The following weak.c test case reveals a linker bug in -undefined
dynamic_lookup in Xcode 4.2/4.2.1 under both darwin10 and darwin11.
--------------- weak.c ---------------------
#include <stdio.h>
char *myweakfunc(void) __attribute__((weak)) ;
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
if (myweakfunc)
printf ("found myweakfunc %s\n", myweakfunc());
else
printf("Weak func not found\n");
return 0;
}
-------------------------------------------
Steps to Reproduce:
1) Install Xcode 4.2 on darwin10 or darwin11.
2) Compile the weak.c test case with...
/usr/bin/llvm-gcc weak.c -o wk -undefined dynamic_lookup
3) Execute the resulting "wk" executable
Expected Results:
I expected the same results as is seen when the weak.c test case is compiled
with llvm-gcc from Xcode 3.2.6...
howarth% /Developer-3.2.6/usr/bin/llvm-gcc weak.c -o wk -undefined
dynamic_lookup
howarth% ./wk
Weak func not found
Actual Results:
The resulting binary fails to execute with the runtime error...
dyld: Symbol not found: _myweakfunc
Referenced from: /Users/howarth/./wk
Expected in: flat namespace
in /Users/howarth/./wk
Trace/BPT trap
Regression:
This can be shown to be a regression in Xcode 4.2's ld since...
howarth% /usr/bin/llvm-gcc weak.c -o wk -undefined dynamic_lookup --save-temps
howarth% /Developer-3.2.6//usr/bin/ld -dynamic -arch x86_64 -macosx_version_min
10.6.8 -undefined dynamic_lookup -weak_reference_mismatches non-weak -undefined
dynamic_lookup -o wk -lcrt1.10.6.o

weak.o -lSystem -lgcc -lSystem
howarth% ./wk
Weak func not found
works when the Xcode 3.2.6 linker is used instead of the Xcode 4.2 linker.
