Log Message:
bsd.lib.mk: Exclude MD linker-generated crud from expected symbols.
Not entirely sure why these symbols like _init/_fini/_end on x86 or
__bss_start__/__bss_end__ on aarch64 or _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ on hppa
are exported at all, but it's something the linker is doing
automatically -- and unnecessarily, since libraries with explicit
version scripts don't export these -- and I'm not sure there's any way
to suppress it.
This way, most *.expsym lists can be machine-independent, which will
help keep maintenance burden much lower.
Currently we have only one *.expsym file for a library that _doesn't_
use a version script, libm -- fix that up to reduce the crud. (That
one already happens to have a lot of machine-dependent exports
because of differences in floating-point ABIs so the linker-generated
MD symbol crud wasn't much more of a maintenance burden in this case,
but this maintenance burden is why I haven't aggressively gone around
creating *.expsym files for other libraries.)
