Can GCC optimize code size for functions with the same body?

I'm debugging a C++ program with GDB and faced that different functions turned out to be the same. Here is what I mean by that:

some.hpp

class Base{   virtual bool foo() const;   virtual bool bar() const;}

some.cpp

bool Base::foo() const {  return false;}bool Base::bar() const {  return false;}

The problem is that in gdb I see the following:

(gdb) p someBaseObject->foo$1 = {bool (const Base * const)} 0xdeadf00d <Base::foo() const>(gdb) p someBaseObject->bar$2 = {bool (const Base * const)} 0xdeadf00d <Base::foo() const>

I suppose GCC optimizes those two functions to save code size. Does it? This complicates debugging though...
