    I've been solving undefined symbols related to:
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR57703. In chromium there's a following inline asm:

asm(".type Syscall, @function\n" ...);

intptr_t SandboxSyscall(...)
{
    asm volatile("call SyscallAsm");
}

Can you explain why you need that asm statement?

Normally the .type declaration would appear where the Syscall symbol
is defined.  Why are you putting it elsewhere?
