   I tried creating a source file test.s containing just your two problem   
   lines:   
      
       .globl _ZN10__cxxabiv117__array_type_infoD1Ev   
       _ZN10__cxxabiv117__array_type_infoD1Ev = _ZN10__cxxabiv117__   
   rray_type_infoD2E   
      
   and when I try to assemble it,   
      
       gcc -c test.s   
      
   there is no error, and test.o is created OK. Trying objdump on it   
      
       objdump -t test.o   
      
   shows it has the correct symbol reference in it, albeit undefined:   
      
       test.o:     file format elf64-x86-64   
      
       SYMBOL TABLE:   
       0000000000000000         *UND*  0000000000000000 _ZN10__cxxa   
   iv117__array_type_infoD2E   
      
   So no, the issue is not with those two particular lines on their own.   
   Something else is involved.
