Checking D->isUsed() certainly sounds simpler :-) I'll try that out.

We can't unconditionally call EmitTopLevelDecl, because it will call DeclMustBeEmitted, which might calculate the gva linkage, and then we fail this test from SemaCXX/undefined-internal.cpp :(

      namespace test7 {
        typedef struct {
          void bar();
          void foo() { bar(); }
        } A;
      }

I suspect that test doesn't work well with the "used" attribute either.
