perhaps these should be reimplemented with the common FUNC

macros though? while at it, why isn't libucontext_trampoline
tagged hidden in other archs?
added a second commit which uses the common macros in ppc*
it is necessary to tag these symbols as functions otherwise the linker gets confused; this previously manifested as the internal functions (pre-rename) like
__getcontext
leaking into the symbol table of things linked againstlibucontext
that used theucontext
POSIX API through the weak aliasesit also had another bad effect and that is if you tried to use
libucontext
's API (post-rename), the linker would warn you during compile time that the type is unknown, and the resulting program would crash at runtimeafter properly tagging everything, I no longer notice any leakage, i.e. there don't seem to be any references to the aliased symbols in the resulting symbol table when using the aliases, and using the
libucontext
prefixed symbols directly also workswe talked about this in IRC previously, and I wanted to finally get this out of the way; after this is fixed it'll be needed to bump soname for next release
