An alternative would be to compile with hidden symbols by default and make functions public via an visibility=default attribute. This would be consistent with Windows and declspec(dllexport) for the public symbols. However then we would pollute tommath.h prototypes with MP_PUBLIC attributes. Right now we need a .def file to specify exported symbols on Windows.
