Re: PATCH: Re: An undefined typed symbol bug?

Without knowing the background, I'd say we should keep the warning,
and possibly fix the case where we currently don't warn.  The testcase
explicitly sets the type of the undefined symbol to @object.  I think
a warning is in order when satisfying the reference with a @function
symbol.

I'm thinking of ABIs like powerpc64-linux with function descriptors
as a reason for wanting to distinguish between the descriptor and its
code.
