           Summary: nm -g does not include unique global symbols
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.21
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: binutils
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden


nm --version
-> GNU nm (GNU Binutils; openSUSE 11.4) 2.21

Output from "nm -g" does not include symbols of type "u" = "unique
<em>global</em> symbol".

Also, related documentation bug for nm.  The man page says, regarding
the symbol type:

  "If lowercase, the symbol is local; if uppercase, the symbol is
  global (external)."

That sentence from the documentation appears to have been previously
violated by the "v" and "w", and now again by "u", except the latter
isn't treated as global by the -g flag.
