I'd like to keep it. When it is fixed, we can update it. I tried:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-05/msg00230.html
and got
call __x86.get_pc_thunk.ax
addl $_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_, %eax
subl $28, %esp
.cfi_def_cfa_offset 32
movl bar@GOT(%eax), %eax
movl %eax, 12(%esp)
addl $28, %esp
.cfi_def_cfa_offset 4
jmp *%eax
This is very odd code, comparing against
call __x86.get_pc_thunk.ax
addl $_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_, %eax
subl $12, %esp
.cfi_def_cfa_offset 16
call *bar@GOT(%eax)
addl $12, %esp
.cfi_def_cfa_offset 4
ret
