Hmm, let's clasify all conditions.

1. Only symbol, check it, if not found, fail.
2. Only address, check it, if not found, fail.
3. Both, check address,
    3.1 not found, fail, because some symbols might have muplitple instances,
          we don't bother to check symbol name.
    3.2 found, check if symbol mismatch, if yes, fail.


Is this reasonable?  Next mail is a renewed patch following this priciple.
