# This test will verify if CheckSymbolExists only report symbols available
# for linking that really are. You can find some documentation on this in
# bug 11333 where we found out that gcc would optimize out the actual
# reference to the symbol, so symbols that are in fact _not_ available in the
# given libraries (but seen in header) were reported as present.
#
# If you change this test do not forget to change the CheckCXXSymbolExists
# test, too.
