On translation units, yes, but on libraries the behaviour is usually clear, 
with interposing (I admit if this is a standard or only a de-facto 
convention). The problem is, this usually leads to conflicts anyway so it's 
really borderline. I think only pthread libraries and Xorg relies heavily on 
interposing, although other things like dmalloc and other preloadable 
libraries make use of this features.
