Same named object files get overwritten

See original GitHub issue

I’m trying to compile ImageMagick with wllvm. Among others it has the following 3 source files:

../MagickCore/magick.c
../coders/magick.c
../utilities/magick.c

However the manifest for magic.o.bc objects looks like this:

utilities/.magick.o.bc
.magick.o.bc
.magick.o.bc

(notice the repeated .magic.o.bc) and the symbols defined in MagicCore/magick.c are undefined in the final binary.

So I’m pretty sure that wllvm puts the .bc files for both coders/magick.c and MagicCore/magick.c into the same .magic.o.bc file, so one of them get’s overwritten.

I tried wllvm versions 1.2.2 and 1.2.7 and it seems to happen in both.

Any pointers as to how to fix this?

First try gllvm, since I think this was fixed a while ago. If not I can take a look after thanksgiving.

It seems this is only happening with debian 9, I upgraded and now it seems fine. Going to close, thanks for your help!
