Can you check whether that works with GOLD?  If GOLD also fails (though perhaps
in a different way - maybe a redefinition error for bar) then I think the first
thing would be to post this testcase to the binutils list and try and figure
out what is *supposed* to happen.  That foo symbol is invisible to LTO, we
might just decide that it's not valid code.  If you replace the asm by

void foo (void) __attribute__ ((alias("bar"))) ;

it all works fine, as we would hope.
