Re: How does _ZNSs4_Rep20_S_empty_rep_storageE (not) become a unique global symbol?

Actually this bug seems to still exist in latest binutils trunk, so I just 
reported http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15167

I can't explain why it doesn't show up on RHEL (and neither in the next 
service pack of SLE11, which uses binutils 2.23, but as 2.21.1 and trunk 
is broken it's reasonable to assume that also 2.23 is broken), perhaps it 
uses a good linking order for libstdc++ by pure luck, or there are other 
circumstances that hide the problem, not just only linking order.


Ciao,
Michael.
