Well, maybe the solution for those boring issues is very simple (in 
principle): use for gnu-linux systems too (besides x86-darwin, per 
Howard's patch, which, by the way, is approved but still unapplied, I'm 
going to take care of that), -fvisibility-inlines-hidden! I think that 
(in principle, again), there are no objections, therefore I'm going to 
prepare that configury change and check that nothing breaks...
