add explicit symbol visibility controls to the eris DSO
Registered by
Stephen M. Webb
The current (ELF) eris DSO (shared library) exposes and exports a large number if symbols that should be local, private, or hidden. This makes library load time longer (more relocations) and makes distro packaging a little more difficult. This problem can be cured using the GCC symbol visibility facilities.
