OK, try compiling glibc with the attached patch, it should give you some 
warnings :-).

What do you all think about this patch? It covers all the cases I could 
think of, but maybe I missed something. Please take a close look at my 
changes to declare_weak, I'm not too sure my DECL checking is 100% 
correct/allowed. Can someone think of a better warning message? And what 
about a merge_weak() function (naming? in which file?) instead of 
duplicating the code?

The testcases are planned for the dg framework, but I haven't added all the 
dg funkiness yet :-).

Franz.
