Hi Ulf,
In connection to gas handling weak symbols for mips, as we know we have
got this working correctly from the patches we have cooked up and have been
using. Though they address the same issue the patches are different. I think
if we can work out the patch on tc-mips.c and get it checked in by someone
it will be better since this is a common problem for all mips targets.. This
is a serious one and affects g++ primarily since for linkonce sections
handling of weak symbols correctly is very important.
