They'll be dynamically bound whether or not they are legal Java
symbols. If you try to subtract the end symbol from the start
symbol, you'll get link errors if they're dynamicly bound. If
you don't, then you'll have a dynamic relocation anyway (RELATIVE).
For very recent Solaris, and recent binutils, one can use the
visibility("hidden") attribute to prevent the symbol from escaping.
Otherwise you're out of luck.
Is there any reason _not_ to use _Unwind_Find_FDE for systems that
already use dwarf2 unwind information? That includes most of the
targets that do dynamic linking. If you fell back on other symbols
for the sjlj eh...
