Why syms versus symbs?
It seems to me very confusing to have -Ds (dynamic symbols) and
--dyn-syms. The description in the manual sounds like -Ds and
--dyn-syms should both do what your new patch does. I wouldn't
be able to tell the difference. Is the existing -Ds useful? If both
are useful, the manual should differentiate them. If the other is not
useful, just change -Ds.
