The gccxml front-end runs gccxml_cc1plus with the "-undef" flag.  Does
__GXX_WEAK__ still appear with that?

Yes, but I'd first like to figure out why it is appearing.  The "-undef"
flag is supposed to skip all these definitions.  I even see a check for
it in GCC's code just before it defines __GXX_WEAK__.
