-rdynamic is the canonical name of the gcc option that, on some systems 
only (probably not all systems with GNU ld, though probably all systems 
supported by glibc) passes --export-dynamic to ld.  -rdynamic is not an ld 
option and --export-dynamic is not a gcc option.  -rdynamic is already 
documented in the GCC manual.
