Hi,
this patch fixes a defect Jan found with firefox and its shared objects. We
were inadvertently calling an externally visible and overridable symbol, rather
than the local shared object's instance. This led to strangely sparse gcov
results.
I've taken the STRONG_ALIAS #define from glibc. I'm not 100% sure it's valid
for all supported targets.
Tested in x86_64-linux
I've not committed this patch because of that, and (b) I'm about to emmigrate,
so likely to be unable to respond to any potential fallout in a timely manner.
I've committed the patch now.
