Just for the record, that was what I did on my first pass,

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2002-02/msg00084.html

before we fixed the GNU linker's handling of patterns.  (BTW, they're
globs, not regexps.)  I still have the "steaming pile of shell script"
in question somewhere, if you decide to try this and think it would serve
as an example (example of what, I'm not sure).
