+ // By default, the static linker doesn't export most of an executable's symbols,
+ // but it will export a symbol that appears to override a symbol in a needed DSO.
+ // This commonly happens with C++ vaguely-linked entities, such as template
+ // functions or type_info variables. Hence, a version script is needed even for
+ // an executable.
