Code review comment for lp://qastaging/~alan-griffiths/mir/fix-1617865

Hmm...

    Honestly, this is an assembler bug, but we've been working around
    it for years. Here you have to jump though silly hoops, and create
    an alternate base symbol via an alias. E.g.

    weak_alias (__mcount, __mcount1)
    versioned_symbol (libc, __mcount, _mcount, GLIBC_2_18)
    versioned_symbol (libc, __mcount1, mcount, GLIBC_2_18)

    There are other examples in the source base for similar if you go
    grepping...
