This should not be done for non-PIC code. In those, it might be preferable to
make the actual call, as opposed to an indirect jump.

I also wonder what would happen for a call that resolves back into the current
module. In those cases, keeping the indirect call would be unnecessary.
However, it also seems like an edge case to me: why is the symbol weak if it's
part of the module?
