Dear Alan!

I have not dreamed that the staff from Sun can help, I'm
very happy.

It's very helpful to understand the lowest version of SunPro C to
enable visibility feature, thanks! In this case, "__global" style
is used...

I guess, latest Oracle cc may accept both of __global and
__attribute__((visibility)) styles, and both of --xldscope and
-fvisibility= styles.

If so, there's any preference? If the style like GCC was
introduced in later (for the compatibility with GCC), using
GCC-unlike style would be more generic for SunPro C.
