Google "gnu linker export symbol".

The format of the version script commands is identical to that used by Sun's
linker in Solaris 2.5. The version script defines a tree of version nodes. You
specify the node names and interdependencies in the version script. You can
specify which symbols are bound to which version nodes, and you can reduce a
specified set of symbols to local scope so that they are not globally visible
outside of the shared library.
