Nope, it's the same purpose, just worded in a different way.
All implementations of these macros tell the assembler whether it has
enough information to apply a relocation. In all platforms that
support shared libraries, this includes not applying a relocation
because the symbol may be overridden by a static or dynamic linker
because it's weak or extern.
