[LLVMdev] Combining LinkOnce and External

[Talin]

Before I go writing a bug report, I want to know if the behavior I am 
seeing is intended.

Before 1.3, I was able to generate a linkonce definition in one module, 
and an external declaration in another module and link them together, 
with the result being a defined symbol with external linkage. However, 
with the latest head, it apparently discards the linkonce version, and 
my output contains the declaration only, which fails when I try to 
generate code.

Is it legal to combine linkonce and external in this way?
