Oh this gets more fun. We can't use the exit code because some nm's return a
nonzero exit code if no symbols are found! I'll have to add a grosser hack,
looking for the string 'invalid argument' (in the C locale, naturally). This
makes me feel rather ill :/

(It's starting to feel easier to compile something and then try to look for its
symbols, but at this stage I don't think we are guaranteed a working compiler.)
