That would be sufficient for me too as long as a <version_2> with only
global symbols is supported as well.

Having a second file with a simple list of symbols instead of a version
script parser is another option.  Actually this is required because to
support W32 we need a .def file

  EXPORTS
      gcry_check_version  @1
      gcry_control  @2

which allows to assign id numbers to symbols.  In theory we could add
this via comment lines to a versions script but that would make a parser
even more complicated.  In some projects I create the .def file from a
.def.in file to handle differences between W32 and W32CE.  In any case
the .def file is easy to parse and could be used as input to
--export-symbols.
