I'd make this function specifically for COFF weak externals. No other format requires this feature during symbol resolution, as far as I know.

Maybe assert that the symbol is a weak external?

This could be a bitcast or a gep, so I think you need to call stripPointerCasts on the result. You also need to mangle the symbol name, see how we set Name for example.

I don't think we can get here if the symbol is a valid weak external. I'd assert (via cast or otherwise) that this is the case.

  • renamed to getCOFFWeakExternalFallback to indicate this only works for COFF weak externals
  • asserted that the symbol is a weak external
  • added mangling

(I'll update the title of the revision if you're happy with the new name.)
