Ugh, I was looking at when was that knob to flipped on in this patch, it
is when one calls map__find_symbol_by_name(), when it assumes that the
map is not loaded yet and thus asks for duplicates not to be eliminated.
But what happens if the map was already loaded by, say,
map__find_symbol(), i.e. to find by address? Then that 'true' in the
__map__load() call from map__find_symbol_by_name will be a nop.
So I think it is really better for this to be a
symbol_conf.allow_aliases that tools set at startup, and perhaps even
this could even be governed by symbol_conf.sort_by_name, but I'll leave
alow_aliases for now, its more flexible.
