No. Declarations only. AsmParser takes care of this.

:) This was my initial proposal (some week ago), you've responded
something like "this will be waste of space and memory, since only few
functions will use this feature".

Ok.

This isn't allowed. foo acts as bar's mirror, so body of foo is
redefinition.

They won't be linked. External functions can still call foo();
