This allows people to export some functions, such as malloc. Example:
// #cgo LDFLAGS: --export=malloc
import "C"
This exports the function malloc.
Note that this is somewhat unsafe right now, but it is used regardless.
By using this workaround, people have some time to transition away from
using malloc/free directly or until malloc is made safe to be used in
this way.
This implementation is still very limited but provides a base to build
upon. Limitations:
* CGO_CFLAGS etc is not taken into account.
* These CFLAGS are not used in C files compiled with the package.
* Other flags (CPPFLAGS, LDFAGS, ...) are not yet implemented.
