        <div>
        <pre>With this Objective-C code:

```
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>

@interface NSArray (first)
- (void)firstMethod;
@end

@implementation NSArray (first)
- (void)firstMethod {}
@end

@interface NSArray (second)
- (void)secondMethod;
@end

@implementation NSArray (second)
- (void)secondMethod {}
@end

int main() {
    return 0;
}
```

The produced binary has significantly different symbols than ld64:

```
--- ld64
+++ lld
@@ -1,7 +1,10 @@
 -[NSArray(first) firstMethod]
 -[NSArray(second) secondMethod]
 _OBJC_CLASS_$_NSArray
+__OBJC_$_CATEGORY_INSTANCE_METHODS_NSArray_$_first
+__OBJC_$_CATEGORY_INSTANCE_METHODS_NSArray_$_second

-__OBJC_$_INSTANCE_METHODS_NSArray(first|second)
+__OBJC_$_CATEGORY_NSArray_$_second
 __mh_execute_header

```

It's unclear to me if differences like this will be a major issue, but I assume
we're hoping to match ld64 more closely than this?</pre>
