Indeed, that works.  Now my question is how to go about hooking libtool's
calculation of $global_symbols_pipe on cygwin (and probably all Windows
targets) to exclude the __nm_thnk* and __fu0_* symbols that nm lists, but
which are only magic hooks to work around limitations of .dll linkage
rather than actual C entry points.
