Oh, and it looks like there is an even better explanation for illumos.
There is a version map file for libdtrace which explicitly lists API functions 
and makes everything else local.
https://github.com/illumos/illumos-gate/blob/master/usr/src/lib/libdtrace/common/mapfile-vers

I wonder why we didn't do the same when porting.
Maybe we should do that now?

This, while not as nice as the illumos solution, fixes my specific issue:
