I have applied the patch now.  But while doing this I had to add a few 
more changes.  There are more gcc problems which are made visible by 
this change, not only the visibility+asm problem (see the new test in 
configure.in).

The result is new compilable again and it seems to work

What I don't see is the PLT reduction.  I might have broken something by 
getting things to compile or there are more tools problems.  This has to 
be investigated.  The design is clean and it compiles which is the most 
important thing.  Please try it with your compiler to see whether there 
are yet more problems.
