--- Comment #1 from cgresser <[email protected]> ---
Sorry, I might be reading this wrongly, and might have reported this badly, but
the authority heading in 100 and 600, must be different:
In our example, the author of the book is writing about himself (a biography),
so
 100 1_ $a Goddard, Giles,$d1962-
 600 1_ $a Goddard, Giles,$d1962-

The authority linked from 100 field is only when Rev. Giles Goddard is the
writer, the authority linked from 600 field is when Rev. Giles Goddard is being
written about. Like I could write a book about him (fear not, I probably
won't!), and then would need to use the same authority of 
600 1 _ $a Goddard, Giles,$d1962-
.

However, the 100 in record 1/book 1 and 700 of the record 2/book 2 should link
to the same authority.

record 2/book 2 might a book where the author has been involved, which could
be:
 100 1_ $a Randomlynamed, Joe,$d1982
 700 1_ $a Goddard, Giles,$d1962-

Joe Randomlynamed and Giles Goddard wrote this book together (or were editors).

If the authority in our example 1/book 1 for the 100 and the one in our example
2/book 2 for the 700 is the same authority record, then the end user clicking
on the link in the OPAC get's books which are either solely written or edited
by Giles Goddard (as in 100 and 700). That would make sense to me in Koha.

If you want to see an example for this:
https://hey.koha.openfifth.net/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=an:141508
books where G.K. Chesteron is the author (100).

Books where G.K. is the subject (600)
https://hey.koha.openfifth.net/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=an:141508

I might be wrong, but I think that Koha gets confused about these being the
same authority.

Hope this helps...
