I recommend that you look at linker version scripts, which permit you to
set specific symbols to be "local" and "global". See the linker
documentation. This approach requires an external list of symbols. It
does not require any specification in the source code.
Another option is to use the visibility attribute, or the -fvisibility
option. See the compiler documentation for that.
