Rolf,

this means that the issue is a binutils bug. Note that in http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#*-
ibm-aix* , it is stated:
"The GNU Assembler incorrectly reports that it supports WEAK symbols on AIX which causes GCC 
to try to utilize weak symbol functionality although it is not supported on the platform.  The native 
as and ld still are recommended.  The native AIX tools do interoperate with GCC."

In short, don't use binutils. If you think the documentation there is unclear we can make it more 
emphatic. Otherwise I consider this to not be a gcc issue. So do you think the documentation is 
unclear? Thanks,

Dara
