How do you do that?
On Posix you use "dlopen", passing in null as the filename to get a
handle to the current executable. Then you iterate the sections until
you find the symbol table. For macOS there's this reference for the
Mach-O binary format [1]. For Mach-O files there's this helper function
as well [3].
