The array '@unresolved_visibility_overrides' in regen/embed.pl is supposed to contain pre-existing symbols that we haven't resolved the final status of yet. When that is done, the symbols in it should be removed and placed depending on their resolution,

Newly created symbols should have their final disposition known, so shouldn't go into this array. This test is a quick and dirty check that new symbols aren't getting wrongly added.

  • This set of changes does not require a perldelta entry.

That first sentence in the commit message ends in a comma. Was there more to come, or should it have been a period?
