These symbols are never invoked directly. It should always be invoked
through a table lookup (indirect function call).

Looks like defining symbols as HIDDEN is not enough to prevent the

Yeah - this is currently unimplemented on x86 for UNW_REMOTE. We'll need
something along the lines of:

ia64/Gresume.c:remote_install_cursor()
