well it's based on the symbols that are actually required but not
defined in the mysql extension library, i.e. LO/URE functions called and
misc. typeinfo/RTTI stuff.

i suspect (but haven't checked) that due to changes to the OUString
class the existing code now implicitly calls and requires different
functions that did not exist in older versions.

the term "symbol" is quite overloaded; this is about linker symbols in
shared libraries, which may be "exported" from library A and "imported"
in library B.  has nothing to do with --enable-symbols or --enable-debug
configure options.
