        <div>
        <pre>With the following source:
```
extern __attribute__((visibility("hidden"))) int foo();

int bar() { return foo(); };
```

clang generates the following with -fPIC -mlong-calls -O3
--target=armv7a-linux-gnueabi:
```
bar:
        ldr     r0, .LCPI0_0
        bx      r0
.LCPI0_0:
        .long   foo
```

That is not PIC, as that .LCPI0_0 label is in .text.

GCC generates the following:
```
bar:
        ldr     r3, .L3
.LPIC0:
        add     r3, pc, r3
        bx      r3
.L3:
        .word   foo-(.LPIC0+8)
```
