Here's a patch for this. Note that I tried, as a solution, changing
the default lt_cv_sys_global_symbol_to_cdecl to:
sed -n -e 's/^T .* \(.*\)$/extern int \1();/p' -e \
's/^$symcode* .* \(.*\)$/extern char \1;/p'
as we should mark functions with a (). This worked on Solaris, HP-UX,
Tru64 UNIX, and IRIX but not on AIX. Given the following program:
void foo(){int a=1;}
int un_test;
int in_test=1;
AIX xlc does:
$ xlc -c a.c
$ nm -Bg a.o
0 T .foo
44 D foo
56 D in_test
60 B un_test
If we could have the sed magic change this to (on output):
T foo foo
D in_test in_test
D un_test un_test
then we'd be set but that requires us to keep state and I can't see a
quick hack to do this.

* libtool.m4: Don't include main() when testing for
command to parse $NM output because some C++ compilers
don't allow you to take the address of main (e.g. HP-UX aCC).
