I had to revert this patch. It broke x86_32. The main issue is that
convenience libraries aren't dealing with symbol visibility properly.

x86/Gos-linux.c for example refers a hidden symbol:
dwarf_make_proc_info(). This works fine when the object files are
linked together like before, but not when using convenience libraries.
