--- Comment #3 from Nicholas Wilson <ncw at realvnc.com> ---
I've worked it out - it's INVALID, my bad.

I was confused because the ".o" Wasm files don't appear right. Indeed they're
not right, what I hadn't realised is that relocations are used to clear up the
problem at link time. I hadn't realised that all function indices in Wasm refer
to the same index space, so a single-index relocation is able to redirect a
call between exported/imported/defined functions.

There *is* still a problem with weak symbols causing duplicate names to be
written out, as illustrated by the following testcase, but I'll sort that in
another review request.
