Research direction
Start by locating is_import() in the Rust ELF parsing code and inspect its current symbol-value and section-index checks. Confirm the behavior for global or weak symbols with SHN_UNDEF, then add or update focused coverage if the surrounding code has tests. Done means is_import() uses the intended binding and section-index conditions instead of st_value == 0.
