Darwin fix libstdc++ build warnings.
GCC does not export construction vtable symbols from shared libraries.
The symbols are marked hidden in the objects; for Darwin that makes
them also external (“private_extern” is Darwin’s hidden) which means
that they show up in the list of possible symbols for export from
libstdc++, and there are sufficiently relaxed match conditions that
they reach the exports list. When Darwin’s static linker encounters
them it generates a warning that they cannot be exported. This patch
prunes them from the list of symbols to be considered, thus
eliminating the warnings. No functional Change inended to the library
exports.
