Some object formats, like ELF, allow interposing of symbols by dynamic linker.
This means that for symbols exported from the DSO compiler can not perform
inter-procedural propagation, inlining and other optimizations in anticipation

that the function or variable in question may change. While this feature is
useful, for example, to rewrite memory allocation functions by a debugging
implementation, it is expensive in the terms of code quality.

With @option{-fno-semantic-interposition} the compiler assumes that
if interposition happens for functions the overwriting function will have
precisely the same semantics (and side effects).
Similarly if interposition happens
for variables, the constructor of the variable will be the same. The flag
has no effect for functions explicitly declared inline, where
interposition changing semantic is never allowed and for symbols explicitly
declared weak.
