FWIW, this issue is *not* related to ifunc.  As Alan described in
previous email, ifunc symbol is OK, but normal function symbol's target
type is NULL, because without debug information, GDB doesn't know the
symbol is a function or not.  I thought about it, but I am not confident
that we can set symbol's target type (for example, set it void or int)
in absent of debug information.

Anyway, it is great if you can take a look.
