It seems that our top-level assembly blocks are defining module-local symbols on ELF. That's somewhat OK for now, but will be painful in the future. Particularly if non-Mac platforms want to enable the LLInt.

I'm starting to think that the solution might be to do what I proposed in bug #31800 . If it works we might be able to get rid of HIDE_SYMBOL altogether.
