PATCH: Fix linker garbage collection tests for targets that use an underscore prefix


Hi Guys,

  I am applying the patch below to solve a problem with the linker's
  garbage collection tests (ld/testsuite/ld-gc) on targets where the
  compiler will prefix global symbols with an underscore.  This fixes
  testsuite failures for the bfin, cris, hppa, powerpc, h8300, mn10300
  and v850 targets.

Cheers
  Nick

2008-10-29  Nick Clifton  <nickc@redhat.com>

	* ld-gc/gc.c (dummy_func): New function - present so that
	underscore prefixed aliases can be created of the used_func and
	main functions.
