I'm not sure I follow - how would that be possible? building the object from the PCH is done independently of any usage, so it can't depend on the way the PCH is used by any TU that includes it, I think? Hmm, yeah, seems it's not context-sensitive (actually Hans says on the original review it is context sensitive - but in the reverse: it ensures that /unreferenced/ dllexported functions are exported), but it is dllexport sensitive. So that's probably enough to not make this generalizable - seems I did ask these questions back when the feature was reviewed: https://reviews.llvm.org/D48426 & I'd forgotten. Sorry about that. Seems there's not much/nothing to do here - the two features are similar, but sufficiently different.
