I don't see anything complex about hidden_proto/def.  All they do is 
create a hidden version of the symbol (e.g. __GI_pthread_cond_signal) 
and an exported alias (pthread_cond_signal).  Then, by using 
hidden_proto inside the library code before referencing the function, we 
access the hidden symbol instead of the exported one, which gives us 
exactly what we want.

Any particular reason to object to this?
