Several tests are failing because of those missing symbols.

I understand why we need to export symbols relying in the versioned namespace but I don't understand why we need to do it for _GLIBCXX_DEBUG symbols which are not version namespace dependant.

If you don't export the symbol, it can't be found by code linking to
libstdc++.so.8

So I understand that in versioned namespace mode only gnu-versioned-namespace.ver is being used and not gnu.ver.

Right.


This linker script is the only one used to build libstdc++.so.8 so all
symbols that need to be exported by that library have to be exported
by this script. Nothing exports that debug symbol unless you add it
here.

What I don't understand is why the __istream_extract symbol isn't
matched by the wildcard in the extern "C++" block at the top of the
file.

Maybe for the same reason that the std::__copy_streambufs before this one and some others symbols in std::__8 had to be explicitely exported too.

But I don't know it.

Yeah, I don't understand those either.

OK for trunk anyway. I'll investigate another day.
