This is irrelevant to your patch, but on Linux the local symbols do show up
in the symbol table, as I remembered; I always filter nm output as a
result. This may be a gas thing. Any gas folk care to comment?
Yes, there is some bad interaction going on, I believe related to
debugging references to local symbols in non-standard sections. The
assembler is not converting them into relocs against a section symbol
for some reason. I've never gotten around to looking into it.
