I could just reproduce the problem on mainline with a C-only build. I've
got to further investigate what's going on here. I'm pretty sure the
linker isn't the culprit, though: before I made the change, I verified with
the Sun linker maintainers that .hidden support had been added to ld back
in Solaris 9 days, and since there is only one ld, this cannot be the
difference between the i386 (default) and i686 builds.
This make take a few days, though.
Thanks for the report.
