Yeah, [1] but you really don't want to do that if you're just controlling
exports.  The linker script to do that is very cut-down, not a full
linker script.

Look at gcc/config/i386/libgcc-glibc.ver

Andrew.

[1] man ld:

       --dll-verbose
       --verbose
           Display the version number for ld and list the linker emulations
           supported.  Display which input files can and cannot be opened.
           Display the linker script being used by the linker.
