When Swift always copied the overlay dylibs into app bundles, it was OK for these symbol references to be non-weak, but with the overlays now part of the OS on Apple platforms, we need to handle backward deployment scenarios where a new overlay does not exist on an old OS version. A weak reference will serve to pull in the overlay dylib if it exists, without causing a fatal error if it does not. rdar://problem/50110036
