#8288: Undefined weak symbols should get a value of 0

Comment (by bonefish):
I could have sworn the feature was implemented in the runtime loader at
the same time, but obviously that's not the case.
The implementation is rather easy: In [http://cgit.haiku-
os.org/haiku/tree/src/system/runtime_loader/elf_symbol_lookup.cpp#n527
resolve_symbol()] `lookupError` simply needs to remain `ERROR_UNPATCHED`,
if `sym` is weak (i.e. put the assignment in a respective "if").
I can't promise that I get to implement it anytime soon. So, if there are
any takers ...
