Now I have tested my suggestion, and I had forgotten the -c in the
compile step...

...but after adding that it works for me to limit symbol visibility with
the above.  So, it might be that libtool does not support limiting symbol
visibility on your system?  I couldn't tell, and am probably not the
right person to further debug this.

So, please post further details on your OS etc.  See section 2 in
