Hehe, when it's so simple, then why there is no warning/error for 8 of 21 
cases below, leading to potential miscompilation due to the missing 
SYMBOL_REF_WEAK (/i in RTL) flag? And these testcases are just a quick 
summary I cobbled together in 5 min, there may be more cases out there.

Only case 3a (with the currently commented out #pragma weak) gives an error.

BTW, does the dg testsuite have something like "scan-rtl-not rtl/-dr 
symbol_ref:" to scan for a naked SYMBOL_REF?

Franz.
