I know that.
I'm trying to understand why on Solaris you didn't see abi_check errors,
because for sure on Linux those operators are in the baselines and
normally exported, isn't just about the linker script. I repeat one last
time: on Linux we started exporting the symbols @3.4.5, and for real,
isn't just that the linker script mentioned the symbols. Then, we (or
Jakub) updated the Linux baselines many times, and the baselines always
included those symbols. There is nothing special going on on Linux. How
you can profitably use this information to understand what't going on on
Solaris, I don't know exactly.
