I've checked in a patch for this. Machine-dependent configure files have to define PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN (PI = position-independent). If this symbol is defined and HAVE_HIDDEN is defined and HAVE_VISIBILITY_ATTRIBUTE is defined we use the new and improved way of handling startup in ld.so.

For x86 we unconditionally define PI_STATIC_AND_HIDDEN (note, that any user of the macro has to make sure that the symbol visibility is suppoerted as well). For other architectures defining this symbol might require running tests.
