+# Before a shared module's DSO is produced, a static library is built for it
+# and passed to this script.  The script generates -Wl,-u options to force
+# the inclusion of symbol from libqemuutil.a if the shared modules need them,
+# This is necessary because the modules may use functions not needed by the
+# executable itself, which would cause the function to not be linked in.
+# Then the DSO loading would fail because of the missing symbol.
