How about if we link the library and then use "nm" to list all the symbols and then find all symbols that start with "apr_" and export those. That will give us a *precise* set of symbols, without worry for whatever set of conditions were present at preprocessor or compilation time. I understand "nm" isn't portable, but most platforms have such a tool. On Windows, it is "objdump" (IIRC). I bet we can find a similar tool on all platforms. If not, then we can hope there is a platform specific way to link in all symbols, or that we don't need the hack, or that we can use a "pretty close" AWK script. Thoughts?
