Hi Renlin,
> Okay to commit and backport to 2.30 branch?
Approved for branch and mainline.
One thing though - and I am just being paranoid now -
can you get an indirect symbol that points to an absolute
symbol ?
If so, then you would need to enhance your check to follow
any indirect symbol to see what type it (eventually) becomes...
Cheers
