@pid_eins duuuh. Is notify used more than than a couple times anyway to mess up that much?

But I guess you're right that the standard doesn't give us out of the box easy experience to declare I-don't-care-about-address-uniqueness-just-link-it functions. @thephd sorry to bother, is it even a popular use case? I definenelty wrote a couple of static-not-inline function in some internal headers of my projects.

@ldvsoft @pid_eins @thephd on startup, on reload, on watchdog ping are the most common use cases

@bluca @pid_eins yeah, those three. I'd think that ready/reload are quite cold on the runtime. Watchdog probably not the hostest thing in the world.

@ldvsoft @pid_eins It's not an entirely uncommon use case but the fix is to provide a header file and a source file with the usual boilerplate to make it link either statically with a public-visibility function or a DLL with a public-visibility exported entry in the DLL. your distro maintainers will fight over who gets the honor of making it an official dependable package if they care.
