[Scons-users] Use of -Wl, -Bsymbolic flag in building shared libraries

Hi,

While building a versioned shared library, scons forces the use of
-Wl,-Bsymbolic flag on posix and cygwin systems.

This can be really annoying as this flag may have some weird effects,
and I see no way to disable it without patching scons or writing my
own shared library builder.

Wouldn't it be better to remove this flag from the code and let users
  add it in SHLINKFLAG if needed ?
