    Description

      Currently, libraries and applications with dependencies to shared libraries are re-linked every time the dependency's time stamp changes. Instead, we could simulate the Windows approach by keeping a tab on the exported symbols and re-link only when that list changes. The nm tool is part of binutils, so its presence can probably be assumed for developer machines.
