Build ID: 200905290807

Steps To Reproduce:
In the code below, when trying to "Add Globals" to the variables view, visible_static is listed, but invisible static is not.

Note that this is when using an embedded toolchain (arm-none-eabi-gcc from CodeSourcery, for example). 

Having traced through the code, the problem seems to be in the Elf reader (which is used to populate the list of globals). It is making the assumption that all global variables are in the .data section. But unititalised data is placed in the .bss section.


More information:
static int visible_static = 1 ;
static int invisible_static ;

int main(void) {
	int i = 1 ;
	visible_static = 0 ;
	invisible_static = 0 ;
}
