Okay, due to gcc/binutils yes (they weren't hiding symbols properly),
but it seems to be something that needs to be fixed/worked-around in
glibc anyway. You guys get all the fun.

In particular it seems that all the symbols that've ever been leaked from
gcc-compat need to be exported from glibc. Which means someone needs to do
a scan of woody to work out which symbols these are (Ryan and Guido are
doing this), these symbols need to be added to glibc and -12 needs to be
uploaded, and a lintian test needs to be written to make sure this doesn't
happen again, and to remind people to recompile sooner rather than later.

So, glibc team?

Cheers,
aj
