During final linking, +the objects can be recompiled with some of the entries tweaked/chosen by the +tlink.c code (visible with TLINK_VERBOSE=3), it does this by changing O -> C +in the .rpo files. + +My tests showed that init_repo (cp/repo.c) was correctly calling +IDENTIFIER_REPO_CHOSEN against the right identifers and setting the +chosen bit. + +By the time finish_repo() or emit_repo_p() were called, the pointer returned +by get_identifier() for the symbol marked during init_repo had changed and +the chosen bit was no longer set.
