        <pre>llvm-nm does not print anything in the "Type" column when producing sysv
output. It probably should, given that there is such a column, and since this
information is easier to understand than the "Class" column (and of course GNU
nm does it):

GNU:
C:\Work\TempWork> nm bar.o --format=sysv


Symbols from bar.o:

Name                  Value           Class        Type         Size           
 Line  Section

bar                 |0000000000000000|   B  |           
OBJECT|0000000000000004|     |.bss
main                |0000000000000000|   T  |             
FUNC|0000000000000014|     |.text

LLVM:
C:\Work\TempWork> C:\llvm\build\Debug\bin\llvm-nm bar.o --format=sysv
