My ideas are the following:
 - First and foremost: Can we make things saner/more robust or is it
too late [since most vendors are exporting the symbols] ?
 - Can we confirm that's the case for Linux platforms ?

I'm not trying to start a fight here, but to point out that
"everybody's doing it" type of argument does not mean that "it" is a
wise idea. IMHO one should establish exactly who "everybody" is (both
vendors and platforms), consider for the consequences and then make a
decision.
