Well, as I said, I was mistaken and the .symver directive does actually work for this, but the point of forcing the version is to provide a backwards compatible binary. If I compile with GCC on a modern system, it might generate a call to memcpy@GLIBC_2.14, so then that binary won't run on a system with glibc 2.13 installed. If I force it to an earlier version however, then it'll work just fine.
