            Bug ID: 161
           Summary: GDC prevents backend from removing dead functions
           Product: GDC
           Version: development
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Low
         Component: gdc
          Assignee: ibuclaw@gdcproject.org
          Reporter: johannespfau@gmail.com

Private functions which are never used could be removed by the GCC backend, but we somehow prevent the backend from doing that.

Example: C
--------------
static void foo() {}
--------------
gcc -S -O test.c

D:
--------------
private void foo() {}
--------------
gdc -S -O test.c

The problem is probably in d-decls.cc(FuncDeclaration::toSymbol) and is one of
(or a combination of) these: TREE_PUBLIC set, TREE_USED set, TREE_STATIC not
set?
