I've seen people use it to make something available in a debugger. But in any case, this is how `__attribute__((used))` works on other platforms.

I don't have a specific proposal yet, but yes, I'm picturing something like `__attribute__((export_name("foo")))`.

Oops, I lost the test change when I removed the other changes from the patch. I've now included it.
