Actually, this needs to hold global variables that are exported as well, right? Maybe say "for every global value the module exports".

Also, not a map. So maybe ExportSetTy in addition to comment fix?

----------------
True that we don't import globals, but we do export references to them if they are referenced from a function that is imported elsewhere. So presumably those references should be added to the export list as they may need to be promoted/renamed.

----------------
Oh, I know why. We can't have an alias to an available_externally def, since that is actually a declaration for the linker, and most imported defs are given available_externally linkage (except linkonce which stays the same linkage). This is the same logic as in FunctionImportGlobalProcessing::doImportAsDefinition(). I think there might have been more comments around that at one point but they gotten lost when the code moved around.
