Description Tim Moore 2008-03-14 14:55:53 UTC 
elfutils 0.133 has a rewritten dwfl_module_addrsym that favors global symbols
over local symbols, even when the local symbol is a better "match." This
invaldiates some tests, but it isn't clear if there are any other concrete
effects. The tests will be disabled for now.
