> I imagine this is true currently because we create both sections together. Does anything prevent a .got from existing in an input file? When we support the lazy-binding .bss-style .plt sections, we might not have a .got (that's my current understanding).

We would have a .got.plt section. Not sure how that interact with the
ppc64 abi (is it part of the TOC?).

Maybe I'm just not understanding what is going on, but what would locally resolving such an undefined symbol mean?

But how is a weak undefined making a difference in here? It should
resolve to 0 anyway.

It is also present on x86_64:

$ nm /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.9.2/../../../../lib64/crti.o | grep gmon
                 w __gmon_start__


In any case, even if it is needed for some reason, it is missing a
testcase for that reason. All tests pass if I convert the line to just
"return S.isShared();".

Please do. It is just not worth it having to worry about which parts
are handled by clang-format and which ones are not.

If you particularly dislike the output of clang-format for a
particular code, please open a bug about it.

Cheers,
Rafael
