No, the function deals with IR symbols.  See the comment, which says
gcc does give you visibility on symbols for non-ELF targets.  I'm
quite certain you do not want is_visible_from_outside returning true
for all symbols, but I don't know enough to tell you what you should
be looking for.  I suspect you may be fighting a gcc bug.  Sorry, all
I seem good for is saying "No"..
