I have tried creating own .so libraries and the symbol lookup has worked just 
like on linux. So, it seems like we need workarounds only for special AIX stuff.

My understanding is that a lot of symbols can be found out of the box because 
they are in dynamically linked libraries. Only some libraries are special on 
AIX which don't support dynamic linking and we need this workaround for them.

@suchismith1993: Is this correct?
