In general, we should try to emulate GNU nm behaviour (that was the conclusion from the recent LLVM conference). However, I'm slightly concerned about changing behaviour breaking users of the LLVM tools. It might be worth pinging llvm-dev to see if there's anybody who would be unhappy with changing the default at this point, or even just to let people know that this will happen, unless somebody objects. Personally, I have no objections to it, but I don't have any use for llvm-nm and ARM currently.

Also, the test still needs fixing, even if we decide to not change the default behaviour.
