I was trying to run the tests on FreeBSD and noticed that we weren't printing symbol names. It turns out this is because of the missing -Wl,--export dynamic flag. Instead of hardcoding the name of the flag and only passing it for Linux hosts, use a pre-existing CMake variable instead. I was not aware of this flag, but it appears to have been supported for the past 16 years (with support for more platforms added later): https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/commit/66d1930f5674f08e09f455b3f0777f2de3e0717e

 platforms

printing symbol names. It turns out this is because of the missing
-Wl,--export dynamic flag. Instead of hardcoding the name of the flag
and only passing it for Linux hosts, use a pre-existing CMake variable
instead. I was not aware of this flag, but it appears to have been
supported for the past 16 years (with support for more platforms added
later): https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/commit/66d1930f5674f08e09f455b3f0777f2de3e0717e
