Szabolcs,
I attempted to distill some of your notes here:
https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/GNU_IFUNC
That way I can point users at this.
In gperftools tcmalloc added an IFUNC use [1] which
violates some of the requirements under -Wl,z,now,
so I have a need to document this support and discuss
with tcmalloc developers what we might do. Right now
they call way too much code for this to work.
Cheers,
Carlos.
