Can we detect libs and automatically exclude symbols from shared
libraries?
i.e. when linking against libcygwin.a, ALL symbols therein are from a
dll, so -by default- should not be exported.
That would remove the need for many default exclusions, and be closer to
unix behaviour (as I understand it).
