    Implement the "linker_private_weak" linkage type. This will be used for · 03bcd6ec

    Objective-C metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the
    linker will remove upon final linkage. However, this linkage isn't specific to
    Objective-C.
    
    For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is defined like this:
    
          .globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
          .weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
          .section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
          .align 3
    l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
           .quad   _objc_msgSend_fixup
           .quad   L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
    
    This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
    the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".
    
    Currently only supported on Darwin platforms.
