"multiply defined" ___CTOR_LIST___ under FreeBSD 2.2.6

[Gerald Pfeifer]

As none seems to have cared about my prevous reports :-(, I have
performed some further analysis and destilled a really small test case. 

Please add that to the test suite.

-------- x.cc
#include "x.h"
C x;
main() { }
-------- y.cc
#include "x.h"
C y;
-------- x.h
class C {
    int i;
public:
    C(int j=0) : i(j) {}
    };

------------------------------------------------------- invokation
% gcc -O3 x.cc y.cc

/var/tmp/ccl153902.o: Definition of symbol `___CTOR_LIST__' (multiply

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


Short analysis: The problem occurs only when inlining is performed, i.e.,
with -O3 as long as -fno-inline is not specified. The linker in use is
default ld from FreeBSD 2.2.6.
