------- Additional Comments From hjl at lucon dot org 2005-02-26 02:30 ------- >From the elf spec: If different visibility attributes are specified for distinct references to or definitions of a symbol, the most constraining visibility attribute must be propagated to the resolving symbol in the linked object. The attributes, ordered from least to most constraining, are: STV_PROTECTED, STV_HIDDEN and STV_INTERNAL.
You can't have 2 definitions. The above lines apply to cases where there is only one definition and others are just references. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20218
