Steve, looks like recordmcount avoids referencing weak symbols directly by their function symbol. Maybe it can just skip weak symbols which don't have a section symbol, since this seems like a rare scenario.
When does the .text.unlikely section disappear? During the creation of the object, or later in the linker stage?
The section is there, but the symbol associated with the section (".text.unlikely" symbol) isn't generated by the assembler.
