While making libg++2.2, I came upon the following multiply-defined
label problem. Note that this does not occur without optimization, and
does occur with both -O and -O2. An examination of the .s files generated
with optimization shows labels, such as .L_b20 and .L_b26, to occur twice.
This does not occur in the .s files generated without optimization.
