It is causing LLVM (at least) to fail to build. Do you think it's
worth
adding to the list?
Does it show up anywhere other than Darwin? On the basis of Darwin
alone, I would not further hold up the release. That is not to say
that
I would not consider a patch to fix it, of course.
Andrew Pinski wasn't able to reproduce the link error on Linux, and
I've only seen it on Darwin. However, as Chris Lattner pointed out,
this indicates a fairly serious problem (which shows up even on the
Linux build) in that the symbols aren't getting internal linkage
(they're in an anonymous namespace, so should). It could impact
performance on large systems quite a bit. Certainly during linking.
