-# This test intentionally creates a circular dependency, and checks if this causes the resurgence of the compiler bug linked below.
+# This test is designed to intentionally introduce a circular dependency scenario to check that a specific compiler bug doesn't make a resurgence.
+# The bug in question arose when at least one crate required a global allocator, and that crate was placed after the one defining it in the linker order. 
+# The generated symbols.o should not result in any linker errors.
