[PATCH] Allow multiple coff sections with the name but different comdat symbols

[Rafael Ávila de Espíndola]

Hi rnk,

This is the first step to fix pr17918.

The patch basically ports the ELF logic to COFF. It also needs to extend the .section directive a bit, inspired by what the ELF one looks like. The problem with using linkonce is that given

.section foo
.linkonce....

.section foo
.linkonce

we would already have switched sections when getting to .linkonce. The cleanest solution seems to be to add the comdat information in the .section itself.
