For hppa1.1-hpux10 (*), with and without -O2, both test-cases
above produce identical assembly code for me before and after
the two patches applied, at revision 139233, with what at a
glance seems like sufficient .IMPORT directives.

(*) Plain hppa-hpux isn't supported so please mention an exact
tuple, canonical or as recognized by config.sub.

and thanks for testing!
