[Bug c/18656] New: [4.0 regression]: alias attribute stops working with -O2 and above

[hjl at lucon dot org]

On Linux/ia32, Linux/x86_64 and Linux/ia64, I got

[hjl@gnu-10 alias]$ cat foo.c
static void
foo_internal ()
{
}
extern __typeof (foo_internal) foo __attribute__ ((alias ("foo_internal")));
void
bar ()
{
  foo_internal ();
}
[hjl@gnu-10 alias]$ /usr/gcc-4.0/bin/gcc -c foo.c -O2
[hjl@gnu-10 alias]$ nm foo.o
00000000 T bar
         U foo_internal
