As @efriedma has been trying to tell you, this behavior is fully within the specification of the "weak_odr" linkage type in LLVM IR. If Clang should be emitting different LLVM IR (e.g. using 'weak' instead of a 'weak_odr'), that's a change that needs to happen in Clang, not the optimizers.

However, this is also not a bug in clang, but I'll comment on that on the bug.
