> The crash message is complaining it isn't external/weak.  However, WeakODR should count, right?  Can you look into it a bit more to see what it thinks is broken?
No, actually I've tried it earlier with the example I mentioned in my last comment, but WeakODR still makes compiler complaining. I think it's `foo.resolver` that cannot be declared with as WeakODR/LinkOnceODR without definition. But I'm really not familiar with these rules.
