[Bug binutils/10440] New: aliasing of IFUNC symbols broken

[drepper at redhat dot com]

Defining an alias of an IFUNC symbol must also create an IFUNC symbol.  It makes
no sense to define a normal FUNC symbol since calling it returns nonsense.

        .text
        .type   foo, @gnu_indirect_function
        .globl  foo
foo:    .long   1
        .size   foo, .-foo
        .globl  __foo
        .set    __foo, foo

Assembling this code leads to this symbol table in the file:

    4: 0000000000000000      4 GNU_IFUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT        1 foo
    5: 0000000000000000      4 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT        1 __foo

This is with rawhide's 2.19.51.0.2-18.fc11.
