I would dearly, dearly love for libtool to pick up a --version-script
option that would pass in the full version script on platforms with
linkers that understand it, turn it into a symbol export list on platforms
that only support that, and suppress it entirely if the linker doesn't
have any relevant capabilities.  That would save me a ton of maintenance
burden on some of my packages, and it would then be easy to add a feature
like the above as well.
