About 60K smaller out of 12MB. Is that inline with what you'd expect?

before:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
12164054         420384  352476 12936914         c566d2
out/target/product/linaro_x86_64/system/lib64/dri/gallium_dri.so

after:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
12104616         419816  352476 12876908         c47c6c
out/target/product/linaro_x86_64/system/lib64/dri/gallium_dri.so


The change is trivial, though I'm not sure if there's any downside to
setting --undefined-version (The Android build system turns this off).
