That depends entirely on how far you are willing to bend the ELF gABI.

Any testcase the takes the address of a protected visibility variable
defined in a shared library now can get the wrong answer, since you
can argue that any address outside the shared library is wrong
according to the gABI.

I expect you can also write a testcase using a const protected var in
a shared library that ought to segfault on writing to the var from
code within the shared library, that now merrily writes to a .dynbss
copy.
