In what sense is it still GC-able? I assume only LTO can do it? |

I mean that normal Basically wasm-ld will never see this pointer as being used so it won't allocate the 4-bytes to store it. |

When no local usage of an EM_JS function is present the compiler was completely removing the import of the function (and its import_name). With this change we force at least one reference to the function by taking its address in an otherwise unused (and GC-able) pointer. This use case was broken by the switch to LLD_REPORT_UNDEFINED in #16003. Fixes: #18927
