The test is very sensitive to LTO partition. Also
#define ASMNAME(cname) ASMNAME2 (__USER_LABEL_PREFIX__, cname)
#define ASMNAME2(prefix, cname) STRING (prefix) cname
#define STRING(x) #x
typedef __SIZE_TYPE__ size_t;
extern void abort (void);
extern void *memcpy (void *, const void *, size_t)
__asm (ASMNAME ("my_memcpy"));
doesn't work for all platforms. I will keep digging.
