My recollection is that it didn't work on older Linuxen.

A lot of this would come down to "are we willing to discontinue support
for platforms that don't have symbol versioning"?  Without some legwork
to find out what that actually means, it's premature to try to make a
decision.

Anyway I think this is not 8.3 material; it's something to tackle during
a fresh development cycle.
