This is a rather odd sort of bug.  I can't see anything special about
the symbol you say is missing.  If this one were missing, then so
should many other symbols.  I suspect that we have a wild pointer
somewhere trashing the symbol table, or something like that.  What
happens if you substitute a different name for pglTexCoordPointer
throughout the file?

Incidentally, current mainline gas does not exhibit the problem.

$ ~/build/gas/x86/gas/as-new main_g.s
$ nm a.out | grep pglTexC
00000004 C pglTexCoord2f
00000004 C pglTexCoord2fv
00000004 C pglTexCoordPointer
